go ci workflow

Project Description

This repository showcases a Continuous Integration (CI) workflow for a Golang project using GitHub Actions and Codecov. The CI pipeline automatically builds the code, runs unit tests, and reports code coverage metrics via Codecov.

Features

• Automated Code Build Utilizes GitHub Actions for automated code builds.
• Automated Unit Tests Automated unit tests to ensure code quality.
• Code Coverage Reporting Reports code coverage via Codecov.
• Easy-to-Follow Configuration Contains easy-to-follow GitHub Action YAML configuration files.
• Multi-Version Support Supports multiple versions using semantic versioning.

Workflow

This repository demonstrates the implementation of four workflow jobs:

1. Unit Testing: Automatically runs unit tests to ensure code functionality.
2. Golang Style Checker: Uses the golangci-lint tool to check code style and quality.
3. Unit Testing Coverage Badge: Generates a badge indicating the coverage percentage of unit tests.
4. Semantic Versioning: Implements semantic versioning to manage versions of the project.
5. Security Scanning: Uses the gosec tools to scan golang source code for security problems

Pre-requisites

• Github Account Token
• Codecov Account Token

Usage

1. Fork and Clone the Repository

    git clone [email protected]:devinwangg/go-ci-testing-workflow.git
   

2. Navigate to Project Directory

   cd go-ci-testing-workflow
   

3. Run Tests Locally

   make test
   

4. Generate Github Token and Codecov Token to Github Action secret

5. Push your changes to the GitHub repository

6. Check Code Coverage on Codecov Once the workflow is complete, check the code coverage report on your Codecov dashboard.

GitHub Actions Configuration

The main configuration for the GitHub Actions workflow is stored in .github/workflows folder. Here you'll find the steps for building the code and running tests.
