I need to execute something like go test ./... -v -args -name1 val1
But nothing that works with go test ...
seems to work with go test ./...
CodePudding user response:
The Go test framework uses the global flag.(*FlagSet)
instance. Any flags created in test files are available from the commands line. Positional arguments that aren't consumed by the test framework are available via flag.Args()
(and flag.Arg
, flag.NArg
). Positional args will need --
to separate them on the command line.
For example:
package testflag
import (
"flag"
"testing"
)
var value = flag.String("value", "", "Test value to log")
func TestFlagLog(t *testing.T) {
t.Logf("Value = %q", *value)
t.Logf("Args = %q", flag.Args())
}
Assuming the above test is in several directories testflag
, testflag/a
, and testflag/b
, running go test -v ./... -value bar -- some thing
outputs:
=== RUN TestFlagLog
testflag_test.go:11: Value = "bar"
testflag_test.go:12: Args = ["some" "thing"]
--- PASS: TestFlagLog (0.00s)
PASS
ok testflag 0.002s
=== RUN TestFlagLog
testflag_test.go:11: Value = "bar"
testflag_test.go:12: Args = ["some" "thing"]
--- PASS: TestFlagLog (0.00s)
PASS
ok testflag/a 0.001s
=== RUN TestFlagLog
testflag_test.go:11: Value = "bar"
testflag_test.go:12: Args = ["some" "thing"]
--- PASS: TestFlagLog (0.00s)
PASS
ok testflag/b 0.002s
