SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Go testing patterns for CulenCode.Dots, including Bubbletea TUI testing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Table-Driven Tests: standard Go pattern for multiple test cases with clean, scalable test data.
  • Bubbletea Model Testing: verify state transitions and UI model behavior without full integration.
  • Teatest Integration Tests: run end-to-end interactions using Charmbracelet Teatest for deterministic UI flows.
  • Golden File Testing: compare rendered outputs against golden files to ensure UI stability with changes.

Quick Start

Run the provided patterns to adapt Go tests for your Bubbletea components and start using table-driven and teatest approaches immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions about go-testing

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I test Bubbletea TUI models in Go?▼

Test Bubbletea models by verifying state transitions and UI model behavior without full integration. This approach isolates model logic for deterministic unit testing of interactive terminal components.

What is the best way to run end-to-end tests for Bubbletea apps?▼

Run end-to-end tests for Bubbletea apps using Charmbracelet teatest for deterministic UI flows. Teatest executes interactions against the application to validate complex terminal user workflows.

How do golden file tests ensure UI stability in Go TUI applications?▼

Golden file tests ensure UI stability by comparing rendered outputs against saved golden files. This detects unexpected visual changes when modifying Bubbletea components or updating terminal rendering logic.

How do I structure table-driven tests for multiple test cases in Go?▼

Structure table-driven tests in Go by defining multiple test cases as scalable data slices. This standard pattern keeps test data clean and separate from test execution logic for maintainable validation.

Do I need prior experience with the Go testing package to test Bubbletea components?▼

Testing Bubbletea components requires familiarity with the standard Go testing package, Charmbracelet teatest, and specific testing patterns. Prior experience with these tools is necessary to implement the provided test structures.
