Testing

Run all unit tests locally with

cd build
cmake ..
ctest

Run CI e2e tests

Linting

This projects uses golangci-lint for linting. You can install golangci-lint locally, but there is also a CI action to ensure compliance.

To locally run all configured linters, execute

golangci-lint run ./...

It is also recommended to use golangci-lint (and gofumpt as formatter) in your IDE, by adding the recommended VS Code Settings or by configuring it yourself

Nested Go modules

As this project contains nested Go modules, it is recommended to create a local Go workspace, so your IDE can lint multiple modules at once.

go 1.18

use (
	.
	./hack
)

You can find an introduction in the Go workspace tutorial.

If you have changed dependencies within a module and have run go mod tidy, you can use go work sync to sync versions of the same dependency of the different modules.

The following can be added to your personal settings.json, but it is recommended to add it to the <REPOSITORY>/.vscode/settings.json repo, so the settings will only affect this repository.

    // Use gofumpt as formatter.
    "gopls": {
      "formatting.gofumpt": true,
    },
    // Use golangci-lint as linter. Make sure you've installed it.
    "go.lintTool":"golangci-lint",
    "go.lintFlags": ["--fast"],
    // You can easily show Go test coverage by running a package test.
    "go.coverageOptions": "showUncoveredCodeOnly",
    // Executing unit tests with race detection.
    // You can add preferences like "-v" or "-count=1"
    "go.testFlags": ["-race"],
    // Enable language features for files with build tags.
    // Attention! This leads to integration test being executed when
    // running a package test within a package containing integration
    // tests.
    "go.buildTags": "integration",
