A command line tool for analyzing and summarizing go test
output.
Don't forget to run go test
with the -json
flag.
Pass | Fail |
---|---|
By default, tparse
will always return test failures and panics, if any, followed by a package-level summary table.
To get additional info on passed tests run tparse
with -pass
flag. Tests are grouped by package and sorted by elapsed time in descending order (longest to shortest).
But why?! for more info.
go install github.com/mfridman/tparse@latest
Or download the latest pre-built binary here.
Once tparse
is installed there are 2 ways to use it:
- Run
go test
as normal, but add-json
flag and pipe output totparse
.
set -o pipefail && go test fmt -json | tparse -all
- Save the output of
go test
with-json
flag into a file and calltparse
with-file
option.
go test fmt -json > fmt.out
tparse -all -file=fmt.out
Tip: run tparse -h
to get usage and options.
go test
is awesome, but verbose. Sometimes you just want readily available failures, grouped by package, printed with a dash of color.
tparse
attempts to do just that; return failed tests and panics, if any, followed by a single package-level summary. No more searching for the literal string: "--- FAIL".
But, let's take it a bit further. With -all
(-pass
and -skip
combined) you can get additional info, such as skipped tests and elapsed time of each passed test.
tparse
comes with a -follow
flag to print raw output. Yep, go test pipes JSON, it's parsed and the output is printed back out as if you ran go test without -json
flag. Eliminating the need for tee /dev/tty
between pipes.
The default print order is:
go test
output (if adding-follow
flag)- passed/skipped table (if adding
-all
,-skip
or-pass
flag) - failed tests and panics
- summary
For narrow displays the -smallscreen
flag may be useful, dividing a long test name and making it vertical heavy:
TestSubtests/an_awesome_but_long/subtest_for_the/win
TestSubtests
/an_awesome_but_long
/subtest_for_the
/win
tparse
aims to be a simply alternative to one-liner bash functions.
