Package assert simplifies writing test assertions.
Output will contain a helpful diff rendered using as well as the source code of
the expression being tested. For example, if you call assert.Equal(t, car.Name, "Porsche"), the error message will include "car.Name".
Additional options and custom comparators can be registered using
RegisterOptions, or passed in as the last parameter to the function call. For
example, to indicate that unexported fields should be ignored on MyType, you
can use:
assert.RegisterOptions(
cmpopts.IgnoreUnexported(MyType{}),
)See the go-cmp docs for more options.
func Test(t *testing.T) {
message := "foo"
assert.Equal(t, message, "bar")
// message (-got +want): string(
// - "foo",
// + "bar",
// )
p := Person{Name: "Alice"}
assert.Equal(t, p, Person{Name: "Bob"})
// p (-got +want): domain_test.Person{
// - Name: "Alice",
// + Name: "Bob",
// }
}
