Theatrical-Players-Refactoring-Kata (Go)

This variant provides the kata in Go.

Installation

• Install Go 1.12 (or later)
• In the directory of this file, run go mod download
• You can then run tests with go test ./...

Approval Tests

Approval tests are run with a basic home-grown approval function (see approval_test.go).

In short, for a new test case of TestPrinterPrintByApproval:

• Add a new .in.json file under testdata/TestPrinterPrintByApproval. You can copy an existing one for starters.
• Run go test ./... - it should fail and complain about a missing file.
• However, a .out.txt file will have been created - use this one as the new .approved.txt file.

Approval-testing errors

Right now, the error is tested in-line. You can convert this test to an approval-test as well.
