go-unit-test-generator

To automatically generate Go unit tests, this Skill analyzes your git diff to identify changed symbols and creates production-grade table-driven tests using GoMock and testify. It orchestrates local execution to enforce over 95% coverage before pushing the changes to CI.

Table-driven test generation with GoMock works by analyzing changed Go symbols from your feature branch diff and creating structured test cases with mock interfaces. The Skill runs these tests locally, iterating up to 5 times to achieve deterministic results, then commits and monitors them through CI handoff.

Yes, you need Go, jq, gh, and git installed to use this automated test generation workflow. These dependencies are required to analyze branch diffs, orchestrate local test execution, enforce coverage thresholds, and manage the CI handoff for reliable test validation.

Yes, you can update existing Go tests automatically when modifying code on a feature branch. The Skill analyzes your git diff to identify affected symbols and updates existing table-driven tests with GoMock and testify to maintain over 95% coverage for the changed code.

The best way to enforce high coverage for Go code changes is using a phase-driven generator that creates table-driven tests and iterates locally up to 5 times. This approach ensures error-path coverage and validates that over 95% of changed symbols are covered before CI integration.

Automated Go test generation might fail to reach 95% coverage if the changed symbols contain complex error paths that GoMock cannot easily mock. The Skill iterates up to 5 times locally to resolve this, but deterministic test results depend on the complexity of the diff and interface definitions.
