Well done Kyle. As old as this is, it is so relevant and very informative. I love the 'large interface - small set' test. You have opened my mind to a pattern I can use even beyond mock testing. Have an air coffee on me. Thanks dude and be blessed.

Probably the best explanation of the golang mocking on the web. Thank you!

Wish I saw this video a year earlier when I started learning Go. My first language for work env is Go. And even after a 6 months I was not sure about unit testing in Go. This is really helpful for beginners!!!

Great talk! Just to mention that nowadays gomock is archived, but Uber maintains a fork.

Thank you so much Kyle Host for this superb unit testing video. Is there any way for testing channels, signals, goroutines, locks.

EDIT: Looks like you get to this at the end of the talk 😂. If you have a large interface and you need to test just a few of the methods then you need to be writing more SOLID and idiomatic go. "Interface Segregation Principle revolves around the idea that clients should not be forced to rely on methods they do not use. To achieve this, the principle suggests creating specific interfaces or classes tailored to the needs of individual clients."

What IDE is he using when doing the demo? I usually just use Vim, but I'm considering my options. It's visible at kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gquei6Wmyqymqp8.html
