Not tested? Not done! Yet another talk about tests? I aim to present you with the techniques and tools you might use to build efficient and reliable tests. We’ll use Go, which provides a great testing experience. I’ll show you overlooked techniques such as benchmarking, fuzzing, etc. Plus, I’ll introduce you to the most popular libraries and packages used to test Go code.
