description	Go language coding standards, best practices, and testing patterns. Use when writing or reviewing Go code, implementing tests, or discussing Go language features.

Go

Use the latest Go language features within the version given in go.mod.

Tests

Write table-style tests:

func TestMyFunction(t *testing.T) {
  for _, tc := range []struct {
    name     string
    input    string
    expected string
  }{
    {
      name:     "case1",
      input:    "input1",
      expected: "expected1",
    },
    {
      name:     "case2",
      input:    "input2",
      expected: "expected2",
    },
  } {
    t.Run(tc.name, func(t *testing.T) {
      if result := MyFunction(tc.input); result != tc.expected {
        t.Errorf("expected %s, got %s", tc.expected, result)
      }
    })
  }
}

Include a name field in test cases. Use space-delimited words.
Never use test names to control test behavior.
