Hi Agis, Thanks for sharing the package! A couple of more general thoughts re testing: * We (at Parquery) define our server/clients in Swagger spec and then use swagger-to to generate the code (https://github.com/Parquery/swagger-to). Having client and server code automatically generated made testing much, much easier for us compared to manually making the requests. Let me know if you'd like to have swagger-to-Go client.
* It seems to me that your scenario includes a single executable. However, I'd expect that with many microservice architectures you'd need to start multiple executables. Your tests should fatal as soon as one of the executables stops running. This might be worth an example. * We found component testing to be much easier in Python. (That's just a matter of taste, of course.)
