display failed test output about go-plus

[joefitzgerald]

Kinda like this?:

That would be a nice enhancement. You're right that currently we ignore the test output from go test -coverprofile (except the coverage information). Given we're already running the tests, it'd be nice to get:

• Test errors if they occurred, with links to the line that caused the failure
• Indication of the number of passing / failing tests in the package
• Indication of the coverage %

Does that sound right? Anything else?

That would be more than enough for me. 👍

By the way, per your reddit question, watch this PR - when it's done, I have cleared the path for gocode to be added to go-plus.

atom/autocomplete-plus#99

Thanks for the great feedback! This is exactly what I need!

[cryptix]

Yeah, I already saw it and subscribed. Can't wait! :D

It would be nice to see the output of go test [-v] to see failing tests, but I could do without the background color changes from the code coverage results.

+1 this would be a much appreciated and helpful feature!

[Erwyn]

Same here would love to see failing tests…

What are people using to get go test [-v] output while in atom. I'd like to see test output on save.

I've come up with a solution that I'm pretty happy with. I use goconvey for testing. I run this in a terminal window somewhere and it runs indefinitely. But the interesting thing about goconvey is that it spawns a web server that gives a nice report about testing, coverage, etc. Then what I do is open http://localhost:8080 using the browser-plus extension. Each time I save my code, goconvey automatically re-runs the tests and I see the results immediately in the right hand pane.

Now, my tests are instrumented with goconvey assertions. Not sure how this would work with ordinary go test tests, but it might work.

By default goconvey uses a nice dark theme that is actually very close to Atom's defaults. So with the split pane view, it actually looks like it was intentionally integrated:

Thanks @xogeny. I will have to look at goconvey. I ended up simply using run-command for running a simple go test command.

Would love this feature! Any updates?

I'm using reflex

reflex -r '\.go$' ./test

Where 'test' is this script:

out=/tmp/c.out
go test -covermode=count -coverprofile=$out ./lists
go tool cover -func=$out
go tool cover -html=$out -o /tmp/coverage.html

Not too sophisticated, but it lets me run tests and coverage by itself, independent of atom, see the output in the console, and view coverage data in the browser (Since this plugin also doesn't show coverage inline when any test fails), without buying into a new and coverage style like Convey.
