Testing in Go

Create a new file with ending as _test.go. Run all tests in a package using go test. testing package is used for testing. All test functions should start with capital letter. These functions should have t *testing.T as its first parameter. Error formatiing, test logging etc. should be done using the testing variable T.

The testing framework will not take care of the setup cleanup. This is to be handled by the developer. Hence, any breakage in the test functions should be handled properly.

import "testing"

func TestFileReadAndWrite(t *testing.T){
	//test body
}
