About:
VGT is a command-line tool that visualizes Go test output in real-time, transforming verbose logs into an interactive tree view. It helps developers quickly identify failing tests, slow packages, and execution patterns. The tool enhances the testing workflow by providing immediate visual feedback during test runs.
Key Features:
  • Real-time visualization of Go test execution
  • Interactive tree view of test packages and subtests
  • Color-coded pass/fail status indicators
  • Integration with standard `go test` command
Use Cases:
  • Debugging complex test failures in large Go projects
  • Monitoring test execution progress during development
  • Analyzing test suite structure and dependencies
Alternatives:
  • richgo – richgo also enriches test output but focuses on coloring raw output rather than creating an interactive tree structure
  • gotestsum – gotestsum provides JSON output and test execution control but lacks the interactive visual tree interface
