> [Go SDK] Implement TestStream primitive
> ---------------------------------------

> Key: BEAM-11088
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11088
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: sdk-go
> Reporter: Robert Burke
> Assignee: Jack McCluskey
> Priority: P3
> Time Spent: 9h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> TestStream is a Test-Only primitive to help in verifying streaming SDK and
> Runner semantics.
> It's a Known URN in the Beam Pipeline proto which Runners (like the Python
> Portable Runner) can implement, and SDKs can configure to achieve desired
> behavior.
> This task is to implement Test Stream so it can be added to SDK and user test
> pipelines to simplify validating various SDK semantics.
> This task is *not* to implement and support it in the Go Direct Runner at
> this time, though a separate Jira can be filed for that. At least direct
> runner is expected to fail, clearly saying it doesn't support the TestStream
> primitive. (Further improving the Direct Runner is in issue
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11076)
> Implementing further allows large sections of tests already implemented in
> [Python|https://github.com/apache/beam/search?l=Python&q=TestStream] and
> [Java|https://github.com/apache/beam/search?l=Java&q=TestStream] to be
> replicated in Go, to further improve confidence in the SDK implementation.
> Care needs to be taken for this though, many of those tests also validate the
> "runner" implementations of test stream itself, as Python and Java already
> have runner implementations.
> To implement the Go SDK side of Test Stream look to the following:
> [The original TestStream Blog
> post|https://beam.apache.org/blog/2016/10/20/test-stream.html] describing
> it's overall purpose.
> [TestStreamPayload|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/43c97d811b9ec85116dbde49cde3f0718c2498ce/model/pipeline/src/main/proto/beam_runner_api.proto#L568]
> message for configuring test streams.
> [TEST_STREAM
> Urn|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/43c97d811b9ec85116dbde49cde3f0718c2498ce/model/pipeline/src/main/proto/beam_runner_api.proto#L266]
> for adding the test stream primitive to the pipeline graph.
> Look at how [Reshuffle was added to the Go
> SDK.|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/11197/files] While Reshuffle isn't a
> well known URN like TestStream is (and thus was more work) the same code end
> up needing to be modified to allow user side specification.
> * A [new TestStream
> edge|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/11197/files#diff-ad3762b94450801cd205383673b76f0cc7c7aebd5f55da4e1bd61aac6512fc2e]
> needs to be added to the core/graph package.
> * Handling translation of that edge into the TestStreamPayload needs to
> happen in the [runtime/graphx
> package|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/11197/files#diff-ba723a9194fc9c7dd64d4b22c76b83c55c92c006cfa2dd1c7e4072c5650f71b3]
> * A user facing [beam package entry
> point|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/11197/files#diff-ba19ec6c6322550c7ee60adec55cf212ca9d40fcc8909be98231427da32e4710]
> needs to be added with documentation so users can add TestStream to their
> pipelines.
> * At that point, [integration
> tests|https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/sdks/go/test/integration/primitives]
> can begin to be added using the primitive, for supported runners.
>
> Included in this work is various convenience helper functions or libraries to
> make using test stream simple to use for end users. This may include a new
> user facing package with various options depended on by the beam, graph, and
> graphx packages for configuration.
> Like the rest of the SDK implementation, it's strongly recommended that Beam
> Pipeline Protos are handled in the graphx package to avoid overly coupling on
> a specific implementation of beam, should that change in the future.
