Go Testing Essential Learning Path

Usually, when I start out to learn something for the first time, I hit up the usual suspects: Pluralsight, Udemy, Linkedin Learning, etc. I really love learning programming topics via video training. For me, I find the instructors usually drop little tidbits of knowledge throughout the course, which is often not included in blog posts.

Usually, when I start out to learn something for the first time, I hit up the usual suspects: Pluralsight, Udemy, Linkedin Learning, etc. I really love learning programming topics via video training. For me, I find the instructors usually drop little tidbits of knowledge throughout the course, which is often not included in blog posts. However, when really trying to deep dive into unit testing in Go, I found these resources lacking.

Unit testing in Go is a pretty straight-forward task, which is awesome. And this is also why you can find a lot of resources on the basics of testing in Go. When searching for something more targeted, like mocking with interfaces, it can be harder to find quality content. I have put together this list of links to Pluralsight, YouTube, documentation, and blog posts that really helped me dive deeper into testing in Go.

This is not a definitive list, and I will do my best to update it over time as I run across new resources. However, if you’re new to testing in Go, or haven’t been going deeper than the standard testing package, this post may be beneficial to you.

The Basics

You have to start somewhere, and learning the basics of unit testing in Go is actually very well covered. Here are some resources to get started.

• Go — Testing Package Documentation: I always like to start with the official documentation, even though it's not the best resource when you’re first getting started. However, read over this, as once you get in deep you’ll be coming back to this site over and over!
• Pluralsight — Creating Well-tested Applications in Go: This is a great course of the basics of unit testing in Go. It's a wonderful introduction to unit testing, benchmark testing, and profiling.
• YouTube — Testing and Benchmarking in Go Workshop: There is some overlap with the Pluralsight course here, but if you don’t have access to Pluralsight this is an excellent course. Even if you have access, I still recommend watching both.

HTTP Testing

I find that the majority of code I write in Go these days are REST services. Luckily, testing your endpoints is very easy and these links can walk you through how to do it.
