golang gin httptest example

test_http.go

package service

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"net/http/httptest"
	"strings"
	"testing"

	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)

type userINfo struct {
	ID   uint64 `json:"id"`
	Name string `json:"name"`
}

func handler(c *gin.Context) {
	var info userINfo
	if err := c.ShouldBindJSON(&info); err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}
	fmt.Println(info)
	c.Writer.Write([]byte(`{"status": 200}`))
}

func TestHandler(t *testing.T) {
	rPath := "/user"
	router := gin.Default()
	router.GET(rPath, handler)
	req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", rPath, strings.NewReader(`{"id": "1","name": "joe"}`))
	w := httptest.NewRecorder()
	router.ServeHTTP(w, req)
	t.Logf("status: %d", w.Code)
	t.Logf("response: %s", w.Body.String())
}

can this be updated to assert returned values are as expected. say, using github.com/stretchr/testify/assert. (not self promo, i'm not affiliated) but i like your approach

Thank you!
