Run `go test` at cursor, file, package and w/ coverage

[abourget]

I checked how VisualStudio Code did Go integration and was surprised to find a pretty good integration there. It has those options in the palette:

• Go: Test (cursor) - which takes the func Test* at hand and passes it to go test -run
• Go: Test (file) which only tests the current file.
• Go: Test (package) tests the whole package
• Go: Test coverage in curent package - would run tests with a coverage report.

It would be so great to have something similar, especially the Test (cursor) run.. that would speed up things a log when writing tests.

thanks a whole bunch for this mode :)

I have something akin to the cursor one living in my dotfiles. It uses C-M-x to run the test which point is currently inside. Once that's executed, it stores it so that you can use C-M-x in your non-test files and it will execute that same test again. Simplistic, but works well!

Maybe a cleaned up version of that could be the base of something like this?

IIRC rats has this feature. I'll leave this issue open until I decide whether I want these features in go-mode itself or not, but until then I recommend looking into rats.

Woah cool.. I guess rats is exactly what I wanted. Thanks a whole lot.

https://github.com/nlamirault/gotest.el has the same feature as well.
