How do I set up a Ginkgo test suite?

Question

I have inherited a Go project that consists of a lot of common files, a library of sorts, two executables, and theoretically a test suite. The test suite is being written after the fact. But I dislike the only way I've found of setting up is rather unpalatable

I'm using Ginkgo, and this is my starting directory structure

• component1/component1.go
• component2/component2.go
• cmd1/cmd1.go
• cmd2/cmd2.go
• project_suite_test.go
• component1_test.go

Each cmd?.go file will be compiled into a separate executable.

What I would like is a multi-file test suite, usually one file per component. Where do I put the files so that go test will find and run all of them, without leaving them here in the root of the project?

Answer 1

ginkgo init and ginkgo bootstrap will set up your tests. ginkgo -r will run all your tests recursively.
