Using JSON

JSON is a first class citizen in go-testdeep world thanks to its specific operators: JSON, SubJSONOf, SuperJSONOf and JSONPointer.

import (
  "testing"
  "time"

  "github.com/maxatome/go-testdeep/td"
)

func TestCreateRecord(t *testing.T) {
  assert := td.Assert(t)

  before := time.Now().Truncate(time.Second)
  record := assert.Must(CreateRecord("Bob", 23))

  assert = assert.RootName("RECORD") // Use RECORD instead of DATA in failure reports
  assert.Cmp(record, td.JSON(`
    {
      "Name":      "Bob",
      "Age":       23,
      "Id":        NotZero(), // comments and operators allowed!
      "CreatedAt": $1
    }`,
    td.Between(before, time.Now())),
    "Newly created record")
}
