Russ Cox: Go Testing by Example

Re:Russ Cox: Go Testing by Example by RSHEPP on Wednesday December 06, 2023 @10:20AM (#38544972)

Yeah I think we will give it a try today. We have a mix of devs using devcontainers, runnning pg themselves or working in cloud environment. But they all have a pg instance running already.

For migrations we have a built in house tool, but looks like we just need to satisfy the interface and we should be good to use our tool. Any tips on writing a migrator that won't be obvious?

Yeah, in some cases (devcontainer) we are using docker-compose to for the dev/pg/other systems and dockertest with docker in docker, to spin up the ephemeral pg instance for tests. It works fine, but is a little bit more complicated than I would like it.

I’m happy to hear you’re gonna give it a try! No special tips beyond looking at the existing docs and migrators to see what they do. If you’re stuck please file an issue, I can help debug. I’d really like to know what works and what doesn’t. (It would also be nice to just hear that it all works!)
