// Package testing provides support for automated testing of Go packages.
// It is intended to be used in concert with the ``go test'' command, which automates
// execution of any function of the form
//     func TestXxx(*testing.T)
// where Xxx can be any alphanumeric string (but the first letter must not be in
// [a-z]) and serves to identify the test routine.
//
// Within these functions, use the Error, Fail or related methods to signal failure.
//
// To write a new test suite, create a file whose name ends _test.go that
// contains the TestXxx functions as described here. Put the file in the same
// package as the one being tested. The file will be excluded from regular
// package builds but will be included when the ``go test'' command is run.
// For more detail, run ``go help test'' and ``go help testflag''.
//
// Tests and benchmarks may be skipped if not applicable with a call to
// the Skip method of *T and *B:
//     func TestTimeConsuming(t *testing.T) {
//         if testing.Short() {
//             t.Skip("skipping test in short mode.")
//         }
//         ...
//     }
//
// Benchmarks
//
// Functions of the form
//     func BenchmarkXxx(*testing.B)
// are considered benchmarks, and are executed by the "go test" command when
// its -bench flag is provided. Benchmarks are run sequentially.
//
// For a description of the testing flags, see
// https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Description_of_testing_flags.
//
// A sample benchmark function looks like this:
//     func BenchmarkHello(b *testing.B) {
//         for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
//             fmt.Sprintf("hello")
//         }
//     }
//
// The benchmark function must run the target code b.N times.
// During benchmark execution, b.N is adjusted until the benchmark function lasts
// long enough to be timed reliably.  The output
//     BenchmarkHello    10000000    282 ns/op
// means that the loop ran 10000000 times at a speed of 282 ns per loop.
//
// If a benchmark needs some expensive setup before running, the timer
// may be reset:
//
//     func BenchmarkBigLen(b *testing.B) {
//         big := NewBig()
//         b.ResetTimer()
//         for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
//             big.Len()
//         }
//     }
//
// If a benchmark needs to test performance in a parallel setting, it may use
// the RunParallel helper function; such benchmarks are intended to be used with
// the go test -cpu flag:
//
//     func BenchmarkTemplateParallel(b *testing.B) {
//         templ := template.Must(template.New("test").Parse("Hello, {{.}}!"))
//         b.RunParallel(func(pb *testing.PB) {
//             var buf bytes.Buffer
//             for pb.Next() {
//                 buf.Reset()
//                 templ.Execute(&buf, "World")
//             }
//         })
//     }
//
// Examples
//
// The package also runs and verifies example code. Example functions may
// include a concluding line comment that begins with "Output:" and is compared with
// the standard output of the function when the tests are run. (The comparison
// ignores leading and trailing space.) These are examples of an example:
//
//     func ExampleHello() {
//             fmt.Println("hello")
//             // Output: hello
//     }
//
//     func ExampleSalutations() {
//             fmt.Println("hello, and")
//             fmt.Println("goodbye")
//             // Output:
//             // hello, and
//             // goodbye
//     }
//
// Example functions without output comments are compiled but not executed.
//
// The naming convention to declare examples for the package, a function F, a type T and
// method M on type T are:
//
//     func Example() { ... }
//     func ExampleF() { ... }
//     func ExampleT() { ... }
//     func ExampleT_M() { ... }
//
// Multiple example functions for a package/type/function/method may be provided by
// appending a distinct suffix to the name. The suffix must start with a
// lower-case letter.
//
//     func Example_suffix() { ... }
//     func ExampleF_suffix() { ... }
//     func ExampleT_suffix() { ... }
//     func ExampleT_M_suffix() { ... }
//
// The entire test file is presented as the example when it contains a single
// example function, at least one other function, type, variable, or constant
// declaration, and no test or benchmark functions.
//
// Main
//
// It is sometimes necessary for a test program to do extra setup or teardown
// before or after testing. It is also sometimes necessary for a test to control
// which code runs on the main thread. To support these and other cases,
// if a test file contains a function:
//
//	func TestMain(m *testing.M)
//
// then the generated test will call TestMain(m) instead of running the tests
// directly. TestMain runs in the main goroutine and can do whatever setup
// and teardown is necessary around a call to m.Run. It should then call
// os.Exit with the result of m.Run. When TestMain is called, flag.Parse has
// not been run. If TestMain depends on command-line flags, including those
// of the testing package, it should call flag.Parse explicitly.
//
// A simple implementation of TestMain is:
//
//	func TestMain(m *testing.M) {
//		flag.Parse()
//		os.Exit(m.Run())
//	}
//
