Does it support black-box testing?

Absolutely. It includes guidance on organizing tests into separate '_test' packages to test only the public API of your modules.

How does it help with database testing?

It provides patterns for using transactions to isolate tests, ensuring the database is rolled back to its original state after each run.

Can it help me find performance bottlenecks?

Yes, it provides templates for benchmarks and sub-benchmarks, including memory allocation reporting.

Does this skill support the latest Go features?

Yes, it includes support for Go native fuzzing (introduced in 1.18) and modern testing best practices.

Security & Testing

Implements comprehensive test-driven development patterns and high-quality testing strategies for Go applications.

This skill equips Claude with specialized knowledge of the Go testing ecosystem, enabling the creation and refinement of robust test suites. It covers fundamental Go idioms like table-driven tests and subtests, while providing advanced patterns for mocking interfaces, time-sensitive logic, and HTTP clients. The skill also guides developers through integration testing for databases and HTTP handlers, performance optimization via benchmarks, and edge-case discovery using Go's native fuzzing capabilities. It is designed to ensure production-grade reliability and maintainability throughout the software development lifecycle.
