Golang Testing

RED     → Write a failing test first
GREEN   → Write minimal code to pass the test
REFACTOR → Improve code while keeping tests green
REPEAT  → Continue with next requirement

// Step 1: Define the interface/signature
// calculator.go
package calculator

func Add(a, b int) int {

// Step 2: Write failing test (RED)
// calculator_test.go

// Step 3: Run test - verify FAIL
// $ go test

// panic: not implemented

// Step 4: Implement minimal code (GREEN)

// Step 5: Run test - verify PASS
// $ go test
// PASS

// Step 6: Refactor if needed, verify tests still pass
