Golang Database Test Kits

This library is a testing tool that runs various databases through docker.

Databases

• PostgreSQL
• MySQL
• CockroachDB
• Mongo

Why use this library

• Launching test databases with code simplifies the process of running tests.
• Make use a useful utils like: run migrations, disconnect database automatically and reset database.
• If the test crashes, the database container will still be stopped and removed.

Installation

go get github.com/dmateus/go-testdb/testcrdb
go get github.com/dmateus/go-testdb/testmysql
go get github.com/dmateus/go-testdb/testpostgres
go get github.com/dmateus/go-testdb/testmongo

CockroachDB Usage

import (
    "embed"
    "github.com/dmateus/go-testdb/testcrdb"
    "testing"
)

//go:embed migrations
var migrationsFolder embed.FS

func TestSomething(t *testing.T) {
    db := testcrdb.NewCockroachDB().
        WithMigrations(migrationsFolder).
        WithTest(t).
        MustStart().
        GetDB()
	
    // Run tests that use the database here
}

For more examples, check the tests in each of the database packages.

API

Stop()                              -- Stops and removes the docker container.
WithTag(tag string)                 -- Select the docker tag you want to run.
WithMigrations(migrationsFS fs.FS)  -- Runs the migration files in the given folder. Available in SQL databases.
WithTest(t *testing.T)              -- Instead of handling the database termination with `Stop()`, you can rely on `WithTest` to close it in the end. It also works with testify's Suites.
MustStart()                         -- Starts the docker container.
GetDB()                             -- Returns a database from the launched container.
ResetDB()                           -- Cleans the database.
