Some common mistakes that can be seen in Go are infinite recursive call, assignment to nil map, undesired value being used in goroutine, and more.

Bug-risks are issues in code that can cause errors and breakages in production. A bug is a flaw in the code that produces undesired or incorrect results. Code often has bug-risks due to poor coding practices, lack of version control, miscommunication of requirements, unrealistic time schedules for development, and buggy third-party tools. In this post, let’s take a look at a few commonly seen bug-risks in Go.

1. Infinite Recursive Call

2. Assignment to nil Map

3. Method Modifies Receiver

4. Possibly Undesired Value Being Used in Goroutine

5. Deferring Close Before Checking for a Possible Error
