Getting Started with Mock Testing in Go and GoLand

This tutorial demonstrates mocking techniques on a sample project. For best results, keep this project open in a Go IDE while reading through the tutorial. That way, you can run the examples immediately and learn from first-hand experience.

Prerequisites

It only takes a few steps to get started:

• Ensure you have the latest version (or at least a fairly recent version) of Go installed.
• Download and install the GoLand IDE. There is a free trial available; if you are new to GoLand, don't miss the chance to test it out!
• Fork or clone the code repository for this tutorial. For brevity, this tutorial shows only parts of the code, so be sure to have the repository available to follow along.
