README
diff
diff contains git-style diff generation helpers, particularly useful for tests.
Install
go get oss.terrastruct.com/diff
Usage
diff.Strings
Tired of ugly "expected" vs "actual" test outputs? diff.Strings gives you git-style
diffs:
exp := ...
actual := YourFunction()
diffs, err := diff.Strings(exp, actual)
if ds != "" {
t.Fatalf("unexpected result: %s", ds)
}
diff.Testdata
Sometimes the expected is not a simple string to include in your test. Sometimes it's a
long JSON blob that you want to compare. Use diff.Testdata to easily store and compare
test results to saved files.
err := diff.Testdata("test_results", actual)
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
An example of this is the first image in this README. You can then choose to accept the
new actual by rerunning the test with TESTDATA_ACCEPT=1 environment variable.
Assert
You can also use diff.AssertJSONEq and diff.AssertStringEq in testing environments to
shorthand the above "if fail then Fatal" code.
