一、尽量用Convey将所有测试用例的Convey汇总

用Convey嵌套的方法，将所有测试用例的Convey用一个大的Convey包裹起来，每个测试函数下只有一个大的Convey。比如下面的示例代码：

import ("testing". "github.com/smartystreets/goconvey/convey"
)func TestStringSliceEqual(t *testing.T) {Convey("TestStringSliceEqual", t, func() {Convey("should return true when a != nil  && b != nil", func() {a := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}b := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}So(StringSliceEqual(a, b), ShouldBeTrue)})Convey("should return true when a ＝= nil  && b ＝= nil", func() {So(StringSliceEqual(nil, nil), ShouldBeTrue)})Convey("should return false when a ＝= nil  && b != nil", func() {a := []string(nil)b := []string{}So(StringSliceEqual(a, b), ShouldBeFalse)})Convey("should return false when a != nil  && b != nil", func() {a := []string{"hello", "world"}b := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}So(StringSliceEqual(a, b), ShouldBeFalse)})})
}

这样做的好处是，看单测结果更为清晰直观：

=== RUN   TestStringSliceEqualTestStringSliceEqual should return true when a != nil  && b != nil ✔should return true when a ＝= nil  && b ＝= nil ✔should return false when a ＝= nil  && b != nil ✔should return false when a != nil  && b != nil ✔4 total assertions--- PASS: TestStringSliceEqual (0.00s)
PASS
ok      infra/alg       0.006s

二、用GWT结构来描述复杂的测试用例

GWT结构嵌套了三层Convey：最外层是Given层，用来给定测试用例需要的数据；中间一层是When层，用来执行被测试的函数方法，得到result；最内层是Then层，用So来对result进行断言，看结果是否满足期望。

1 示例代码

示例代码如下：

func TestStringSliceEqualIfBothNil(t *testing.T) {Convey("Given two string slice which are both nil", t, func() {var a []string = nilvar b []string = nilConvey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be true", func() {So(result, ShouldBeTrue)})})})
}func TestStringSliceNotEqualIfNotBothNil(t *testing.T) {Convey("Given two string slice which are both nil", t, func() {a := []string(nil)b := []string{}Convey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be false", func() {So(result, ShouldBeFalse)})})})
}func TestStringSliceNotEqualIfBothNotNil(t *testing.T) {Convey("Given two string slice which are both not nil", t, func() {a := []string{"hello", "world"}b := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}Convey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be false", func() {So(result, ShouldBeFalse)})})})
}

在实际运用中，可以结合第一条方法构成四层嵌套来描述一个测试用例：

func TestStringSliceEqual(t *testing.T) {Convey("TestStringSliceEqualIfBothNotNil", t, func() {Convey("Given two string slice which are both not nil", func() {a := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}b := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}Convey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be true", func() {So(result, ShouldBeTrue)})})})})Convey("TestStringSliceEqualIfBothNil", t, func() {Convey("Given two string slice which are both nil", func() {var a []string = nilvar b []string = nilConvey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be true", func() {So(result, ShouldBeTrue)})})})})Convey("TestStringSliceNotEqualIfNotBothNil", t, func() {Convey("Given two string slice which are both nil", func() {a := []string(nil)b := []string{}Convey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be false", func() {So(result, ShouldBeFalse)})})})})Convey("TestStringSliceNotEqualIfBothNotNil", t, func() {Convey("Given two string slice which are both not nil", func() {a := []string{"hello", "world"}b := []string{"hello", "goconvey"}Convey("When the comparision is done", func() {result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)Convey("Then the result should be false", func() {So(result, ShouldBeFalse)})})})})}

 2 大坑

注意！Given层中最好只有一个Then，因为多个Then会导致每执行完一个Then就会再次执行一遍被测试的函数方法，导致多次执行的结果可能并不相同从而导致意料之外的错误（比如上面示例中的“result := StringSliceEqual(a, b)”）。所以如果选择使用GWT的结构，那么就要保证W中只有一个T，最好也要保证G中只有一个W。

三、自定义断言函数

断言函数So中第二个参数Assertion类型定义：

type Assertion func(actual interface{}, expected ...interface{}) string

返回空字符串表示断言成功，否则就是断言失败了。

1 自定义断言函数

所以我们自定义断言函数时也要注意这点，下面是一个参考示例：

func ShouldSummerBeComming(actual interface{}, expected ...interface{}) string {if actual == "summer" && expected[0] == "comming" {return ""} else {return "summer is not comming!"}
}

上述代码中，第一个条件表示断言成功，其它所有情况都是断言失败。

2 在So中使用自定义的断言函数

func TestSummer(t *testing.T) {Convey("TestSummer", t, func() {So("summer", ShouldSummerBeComming, "comming")So("winter", ShouldSummerBeComming, "comming")})
}

测试结果：
