How can I automate API tests using Go?

How can I automate API tests using Go?

You can use libraries like net/http for making requests and testing for writing tests in Go.

Can you show me a simple example of an API test in Go?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

package main

import (
    "net/http"
    "net/http/httptest"
    "testing"
)

func TestAPI(t *testing.T) {
    req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "/api/resource", nil)
    if err != nil {
        t.Fatal(err)
    }

    rr := httptest.NewRecorder()
    handler := http.HandlerFunc(MyAPIHandler)
    handler.ServeHTTP(rr, req)

    if status := rr.Code; status != http.StatusOK {
        t.Errorf("handler returned wrong status code: got %v want %v", status, http.StatusOK)
    }
}

What libraries should I consider for more advanced testing?

For advanced testing, consider using Ginkgo for BDD-style tests and Gomega for assertions.

How do I run my tests in Go?

You can run your tests using the command go test in your terminal from the package directory.
