Configure Ginkgo for continuous integration — the recommended CLI flag set and the rationale for each flag (-r -p --randomize-all --randomize-suites --fail-on-pending --fail-on-empty --keep-going --cover --race --trace --json-report --timeout…
Diagnose a failing Ginkgo suite as an agent — always run with --json-report into a predictable temp/gitignored location, read the terminal verdict line, then use jq to extract structured failure details (name, message, file:line, panic value, captured logs).…
One-line reference for every Ginkgo decorator, grouped by what it does, with the node types each can decorate — Serial, Ordered, ContinueOnFailure, OncePerOrdered, Label, Focus, Pending, FlakeAttempts, MustPassRepeatedly, NodeTimeout, SpecTimeout,…
Run a subset of a Ginkgo suite — Pending/PIt/XIt, runtime Skip, programmatic Focus/FIt (and ginkgo unfocus), Label with the --label-filter query language and label sets, suite-level labels, SemVerConstraint/--sem-ver-filter, --focus/--skip and…
Control spec ordering and manage flaky specs — Serial, Ordered containers with BeforeAll/AfterAll/ContinueOnFailure, OncePerOrdered, SpecPriority, plus FlakeAttempts/--flake-attempts, MustPassRepeatedly, --repeat, and --until-it-fails. Use when specs must run…
The Ginkgo mental model for writing Go tests — the one idea that explains everything (Ginkgo builds a spec tree at construction time, then runs it) and its consequences for how you write specs, plus spec independence and the node taxonomy. Use this first when…
Run Ginkgo suites in parallel — ginkgo -p / --procs, the separate-process (not goroutine) model, SynchronizedBeforeSuite/SynchronizedAfterSuite vs BeforeSuite, GinkgoParallelProcess() for sharding ports/tmpdirs/databases, building a binary once via gexec, and…
Generate, consume, and enrich Ginkgo reports — console verbosity (-v/-vv/--trace/--no-color/--succinct), machine-readable reports (--json-report/--junit-report with --output-dir/--keep-separate-reports), programmatic reporting nodes (ReportAfterEach,…
Run Ginkgo suites with the ginkgo CLI — run, -r, -p, --dry-run, watch, build (precompiled .test binaries), generate, outline, unfocus, labels, version; spec randomization (--randomize-all/--randomize-suites/--seed); running multiple suites…
Wire Ginkgo into a Go package — install the ginkgo CLI and Ginkgo+Gomega, ginkgo bootstrap to generate the suite_test.go (TestXxx/RegisterFailHandler(Fail)/RunSpecs), the package xxx_test convention, dot-import alternatives (aliased import, dsl/* subpackages,…
Parameterize and generate Ginkgo specs — DescribeTable/Entry table-driven specs, Entry descriptions (string, nil, closure, EntryDescription), PEntry/FEntry and per-Entry decorators, DescribeTableSubtree, generating specs in a construction-time loop, loading…
Make Ginkgo specs interruptible and test asynchronous behavior — SpecContext/context.Context cancellable nodes, NodeTimeout/SpecTimeout/GracePeriod, the --timeout flag, Abort and SIGINT behavior, Gomega Eventually/Consistently (the func(g Gomega) form,…
Author good Ginkgo specs — container nodes (Describe/Context/When), subject nodes (It/Specify), setup/cleanup nodes (BeforeEach, JustBeforeEach, AfterEach, DeferCleanup, BeforeSuite/AfterSuite), the "declare in container, initialize in BeforeEach" rule,…
