• File name: ${NAME}_test

• Extension: go

Add the following code to the template body:

package ${NAME}

import "testing"

func Test_${NAME}(t *testing.T) {
	tests := []struct {
		name string
	}{

	}
	for _, tt := range tests {
		t.Run(tt.name, func(t *testing.T) {
		})
	}

The name of this file will be a combination of the name that you provide and the _test postfix, for example: simpleServer_test.
