Test report

Writing tests is crucial for maintaining the correctness of your application; however, knowing the results of your tests is equally as important. Generating a test report provides a clear overview of test results. This helps identify issues and track improvements to the code base over time. The Go test command supports various flags for customizing test output.

Go provides the json flag, which can be used to generate machine-readable JSON output. This output can then be processed or analyzed by various tools. To generate a test report in JSON format, run the following command:

go test . -v -json > test-report.json

This command runs the tests and redirects the JSON-formatted output to a file named test-report.json using the available test files denoted by the period, though you can specify certain test files instead of using a period. The resulting file contains information about each test, including its name, status, duration, and any failure messages.
