GO-TESTFUNC(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual					    GO-TESTFUNC(7)

NAME

       go - tool for managing Go source code

DESCRIPTION

       The  'go  test'	command expects to find test, benchmark, and example functions in the "*_test.go" files corresponding to the package under
       test.

       A test function is one named TestXXX (where XXX is any alphanumeric string not starting with a lower case letter) and should have the  sig-
       nature,

	     func TestXXX(t *testing.T) { ... }

       A benchmark function is one named BenchmarkXXX and should have the signature,

	     func BenchmarkXXX(b *testing.B) { ... }

       An example function is similar to a test function but, instead of using *testing.T to report success or failure, prints output to os.Stdout
       and os.Stderr.  That output is compared against the function's "Output:" comment, which must be the last comment in the function body  (see
       example below). An example with no such comment, or with no text after "Output:" is compiled but not executed.

       Godoc  displays	the  body  of ExampleXXX to demonstrate the use of the function, constant, or variable XXX.  An example of a method M with
       receiver type T or *T is named ExampleT_M.  There may be multiple examples for a given function, constant, or variable, distinguished by  a
       trailing _xxx, where xxx is a suffix not beginning with an upper case letter.

       Here is an example of an example:

	     func ExamplePrintln() {
		 Println("The output of
this example.")
		 // Output: The output of
		 // this example.
	     }

       The  entire  test file is presented as the example when it contains a single example function, at least one other function, type, variable,
       or constant declaration, and no test or benchmark functions.

       See the documentation of the testing package for more information.
