# Go Testing Skill
Provides guidance and automation for Golang testing tasks in the MCPSpy project.
## Testing Philosophy
- Use `require` library for assertions that should stop test execution on failure
- Use `assert` library for non-critical assertions where test should continue
- Choose internal vs external package testing based on what needs to be tested
- Test internal functions by placing test files in the same package (no `_test` suffix)
- Avoid creating externally facing functions solely for testing purposes
## When to Use This Skill
- Running unit tests with `go test`
- Writing new test files and test cases
- Debugging and fixing failing tests
- Implementing test fixtures and mocks
- Improving test coverage for the MCPSpy project
