Keith Randall 1ab063ce53 testing: callerName only needs one PC in the traceback
callerName requested 2 PCs from Callers, and that causes
both to be looked up in the file/line mapping.
We really only need to do the work for one PC.
(And in fact the caller doesn't need file/line at all, but
the Callers API can't express that.)

We used to request 2 PCs because in 1.11 and earlier we
stored an inline skip count in the second entry.
That's not necessary any more (as of 1.12).

Russ Cox 6ab049b965 testing: panic on calls to Short/Verbose before Parse
CL 121936 added this diagnostic to avoid a panic accessing *short.
(Hence the "This shouldn't really be a panic" comment.)

That CL was right to produce a clearer error than a plain memory fault,
but I think wrong to print+exit instead of panicking. I just ran into
one of these in a real program, and there is no indication anywhere
of how the program reached this point. The panic will show that.
So change print+exit to a panic with a helpful message, in contrast
to the original panic with an unhelpful message and the current
helpful message without stack trace.

Caleb Spare 49a1a01bb1 cmd/go: move automatic testing.Init call into generated test code
In CL 173722, we moved the flag registration in the testing package into
an Init function. In order to avoid needing changes to user code, we
called Init automatically as part of testing.MainStart.

However, that isn't early enough if flag.Parse is called before the
tests run, as part of package initialization.

Fix this by injecting a bit of code to call testing.Init into test
packages. This runs before any other initialization code in the user's
test package, so testing.Init will be called before any user code can
call flag.Parse.

Fixes #31859

Caleb Spare fbc6a97222 testing: delay flag registration; move to an Init function
Any code that imports the testing package forces the testing flags to be
defined, even in non-test binaries. People work around this today by
defining a copy of the testing.TB interface just to avoid importing
testing.

Fix this by moving flag registration into a new function, testing.Init.
Delay calling Init until the testing binary begins to run, in
testing.MainStart.

Init is exported for cases where users need the testing flags to be
defined outside of a "go test" context. In particular, this may be
needed where testing.Benchmark is called outside of a test.

Austin Clements 1257d05088 testing: fix fractional ns/op printing
CL 166717 changed the way ns/op benchmark results were printed and
inadvertently rounded all ns/op results down to an integer, even if
they were small enough to print with digits after the decimal place.
For example, prior to this change, we got output like

    BenchmarkFast-8       380491575	 3.12 ns/op

CL 166717 changed this to

    BenchmarkFast-8       380491575      3.00 ns/op

This had the further side-effect that ns/op values between 0 and 1
would not be printed at all because they would be rounded down to 0.

This CL fixes this by always recomputing the float64 value of ns/op
instead of using the int64 truncation from BenchmarkResult.NsPerOp.

Fixes #30997. Fixes #31005.

Josh Bleecher Snyder 03a79e94ac testing: stop rounding b.N
The original goal of rounding to readable b.N
was to make it easier to eyeball times.
However, proper analysis requires tooling
(such as benchstat) anyway.

Instead, take b.N as it comes.
This will reduce the impact of external noise
such as GC on benchmarks.

This requires reworking our iteration estimates.
We used to calculate the estimated ns/op
and then divide our target ns by that estimate.
However, this order of operations was destructive
when the ns/op was very small; rounding could
hide almost an order of magnitude of variation.
Instead, multiply first, then divide.
Also, make n an int64 to avoid overflow.

Prior to this change, we attempted to cap b.N at 1e9.
Due to rounding up, it was possible to get b.N as high as 2e9.
This change consistently enforces the 1e9 cap.

This change also reduces the wall time required to run benchmarks.

Here's the impact of this change on the wall time to run
all benchmarks once with benchtime=1s on some std packages:

name           old time/op       new time/op       delta
bytes                 306s ± 1%         238s ± 1%  -22.24%  (p=0.000 n=10+10)

Leigh McCulloch 8f4bc468a7 testing: add example to package doc
The package doc for the testing package doesn't have a simple
example demonstrating how to write a test with an expectation. The doc
has simple examples for benchmarks, examples, and skipping, and it would be
useful for people new to writing tests in Go.

Also moved the skip example further down because it references tests and
benchmarks but benchmarks haven't been discussed in detail until the
next section. Skip is also a less used feature and it seems misplaced to
sit so high up in the package documentation. As an example, Skip is used
570 times the Go code repository which is significantly less than Error
and Fatal that are used 23,303 times.

Also changed 'sample' to 'simple' in other places in the package documentation
to keep the language used consistent when describing the small examples.

this stack is only done when needed, however.

Continuing the search into the parent test also requires temporarily
holding its mutex. Since Run does not hold it while waiting for the
subtest to complete, there should be no risk of a deadlock due to this.

Hana (Hyang-Ah) Kim cd037bce09 runtime/pprof: introduce "allocs" profile
The Go's heap profile contains four kinds of samples
(inuse_space, inuse_objects, alloc_space, and alloc_objects).
The pprof tool by default chooses the inuse_space (the bytes
of live, in-use objects). When analyzing the current memory
usage the choice of inuse_space as the default may be useful,
but in some cases, users are more interested in analyzing the
total allocation statistics throughout the program execution.
For example, when we analyze the memory profile from benchmark
or program test run, we are more likely interested in the whole
allocation history than the live heap snapshot at the end of
the test or benchmark.

The pprof tool provides flags to control which sample type
to be used for analysis. However, it is one of the less-known
features of pprof and we believe it's better to choose the
right type of samples as the default when producing the profile.

This CL introduces a new type of profile, "allocs", which is
the same as the "heap" profile but marks the alloc_space
as the default type unlike heap profiles that use inuse_space
as the default type.

'go test -memprofile=...' command is changed to use the new
"allocs" profile type instead of the traditional "heap" profile.

Don’t panic if a subtest inadvertently calls FailNow
on a parent’s T.  Instead, report the offending subtest
while still reporting the error with the ancestor test and
keep exiting goroutines.

Note that this implementation has a race if parallel
subtests are failing the parent concurrently.
This is fine:
Calling FailNow on a parent is considered an error
in principle, at the moment, and is reported if it is
detected. Having the race allows the race detector
to detect the error as well.

Alberto Donizetti bd74fd3abb testing: explain how SkipNow and FailNow stop execution
SkipNow and FailNow must be called from the goroutine running the
test. This is already documented, but it's easy to call them by
mistake when writing subtests. In the following:

  func TestPanic(t *testing.T) {
    t.Run("", func(t2 *testing.T) {
	  t.FailNow()    // BAD: should be t2.FailNow()
	})
  }

the FailNow call on the outer t *testing.T correctly triggers a panic

  panic: test executed panic(nil) or runtime.Goexit

The error message confuses users (see issues #17421, #21175) because
there is no way to trace back the relevant part of the message ("test
executed ... runtime.Goexit") to a bad FailNow call without checking
the testing package source code and finding out that FailNow calls
runtime.Goexit.

To help users debug the panic message, mention in the SkipNow and
FailNow documentation that they stop execution by calling
runtime.Goexit.

Alberto Donizetti 68e1b3e361 testing: clarify rules for concurrent t.Run calls
Apparently, "all such calls must happen" means that the t.Run call
must *return* before the outer test function returns, or the calls
will cause a data race on t.ran.

Clarify the docs.

Meir Fischer 3858349ec9 testing: always ReadMemStats before first benchmark run
If the only way the user indicates they want alloc stats shown
is via ReportAllocs, we don't know that until benchFunc is run.
Therefore, StopTimer's ReadMemStats will return incorrect data
for single cycle runs since there's no counterpart ReadMemStats from
StartTimer that initializes alloc stats.

It appears that this bug was introduced by CL 46612,
"testing: only call ReadMemStats if necessary when benchmarking"

Russ Cox a2a3ace51a testing: harmonize handling of prefix-matched benchmarks
If you have BenchmarkX1 with sub-benchmark Y
and you have BenchmarkX2 with no sub-benchmarks,
then

	go test -bench=X/Y

runs BenchmarkX1 once with b.N=1 (to find out about Y)
and then not again, because it has sub-benchmarks,
but arguably also because we're interested in Y.

In contrast, it runs BenchmarkX2 in full, even though clearly
that is not relevant to the match X/Y. We do have to run X2
once with b.N=1 to probe for having X2/Y, but we should not
run it with larger b.N.

Fixes #20589.

Meir Fischer 11c61eb6af testing: show in-progress tests upon SIGINT
Because of parallel tests, which have stalled executions, the RUN
output of a test can be much earlier than its completion output resulting
in hard-to-read verbose output.

The tests are displayed in the order in which the output shows
that they began, to make it easy to line up with the "RUN" output.
Similarly, the definitions of when tests begin and complete is
determined by when RUN and FAIL/SKIP/PASS are output since the
focus of this code is on enhancing readability.

Brandon Bennett ba8ff87dbe testing: add argument to list tests, benchmarks, and examples
Some large testing/build systems require some form of test discovery before
running tests.  This usually allows for analytics, history, and stats on a per
tests basis.  Typically these systems are meant used in multi-language
environments and the original source code is not known or available.

This adds a -test.list option which takes a regular expression as an
argument. Any tests, benchmarks, or examples that match that regular
expression will be printed, one per line, to stdout and then the program
will exit.

Since subtests are named/discovered at run time this will only show
top-level tests names and is a known limitation.

helper is inlined (as in notHelperCallingHelper). Instead, identify
helpers by function name (with package path). Now TestTBHelper and
TestTBHelperParallel pass with -l=4.

To keep the code unified, this change makes it so that the runner
is also identified by function name instead of entry PC.

Caleb Spare bc29313722 testing: add TB.Helper to better support test helpers
This CL implements the proposal at
https://github.com/golang/proposal/blob/master/design/4899-testing-helper.md.

It's based on Josh's CL 79890043 from a few years ago:
https://codereview.appspot.com/79890043 but makes several changes,
most notably by using the new CallersFrames API so that it works with
mid-stack inlining.

Another detail came up while I was working on this: I didn't want the
user to be able to call t.Helper from inside their TestXxx function
directly (which would mean we'd print a file:line from inside the
testing package itself), so I explicitly prevented this from working.

Fixes #4899.

Russ Cox 719c7b03ba testing/quick: generate all possible int64, uint64 values
When generating a random int8, uint8, int16, uint16, int32, uint32,
quick.Value chooses among all possible values.

But when generating a random int64 or uint64, it only chooses
values in the range [-2⁶², 2⁶²) (even for uint64).
It should, like for all the other integers, use the full range.

If it had, this would have caught #19807 earlier.
Instead it let us discover the presence of #19809.

While we are here, also make the default source of
randomness not completely deterministic.

Josh Bleecher Snyder 948b21a3d7 testing: only call ReadMemStats if necessary when benchmarking
When running benchmarks with -cpuprofile,
the entire process gets profiled,
and ReadMemStats is surprisingly expensive.
Running the sort benchmarks right now with
-cpuprofile shows almost half of all execution
time in ReadMemStats.

Since ReadMemStats is not required if the benchmark
does not need allocation stats, simply skip it.
This will make cpu profiles nicer to read
and significantly speed up the process of running benchmarks.
It might also make sense to toggle cpu profiling
on/off as we begin/end individual benchmarks,
but that wouldn't get us the time savings of
skipping ReadMemStats, so this CL is useful in itself.

Russ Cox c56cc9b3b5 testing: introduce testing/internal/testdeps for holding testmain dependencies
Currently, we don't have package testing to import package regexp directly,
because then regexp can't have internal tests (or at least they become more
difficult to write), for fear of an import cycle. The solution we've been using
is for the generated test main package (pseudo-import path "testmain", package main)
to import regexp and pass in a matchString function for use by testing when
implementing the -run flags. This lets testing use regexp but without depending
on regexp and creating unnecessary cycles.

We want to add a few dependencies to runtime/pprof, notably regexp
but also compress/gzip, without causing those packages to have to work
hard to write internal tests.

Restructure the (dare I say it) dependency injection of regexp.MatchString
to be more general, and use it for the runtime/pprof functionality in addition
to the regexp functionality. The new package testing/internal/testdeps is
the root for the testing dependencies handled this way.

Code using testing.MainStart will have to change from passing in a matchString
implementation to passing in testdeps.TestDeps{}. Users of 'go test' don't do this,
but other build systems that have recreated 'go test' (for example, Blaze/Bazel)
may need to be updated. The new testdeps setup should make future updates
unnecessary, but even so we keep the comment about MainStart not being
subject to Go 1 compatibility.

Rob Pike daf3f08264 testing: add a method testing.CoverMode
This makes it possible to avoid tests where coverage affects the test
results by skipping them (or otherwise adjusting them) when coverage
is enabled.

Daniel Martí 11ff4b21f2 testing: don't warn if -bench was passed
In a previous change, cmd/go was taught to show a "no tests ran" warning
if test did nothing. But it missed a case - if no tests nor examples ran
but any benchmarks were meant to be run, it would still produce the
warning. This meant that running only benchmarks, which is common, would
be confusing:

	 $ go test -run='^$' -bench=.
	testing: warning: no tests to run
	BenchmarkFoo-4            300000              5056 ns/op
	[...]

I believe this was because of a copy-paste error in the tests. This was
being tested, but on the wrong file which does contain a test that was
being run. Fix the path and fix the now failing test by never showing
the warning if -bench was given a non-empty string.

The rationale is that if -bench was given but there was no output, it's
obvious that nothing happened as benchmarks always produce output even
without -v. So showing a warning in those cases is redundant.

To make future typos less likely, make sure that no tests are being run
in the cases where we only want to run benchmarks.

Fixes #17603.

Peter Weinberger ca922b6d36 runtime: Profile goroutines holding contended mutexes.
runtime.SetMutexProfileFraction(n int) will capture 1/n-th of stack
traces of goroutines holding contended mutexes if n > 0. From runtime/pprof,
pprot.Lookup("mutex").WriteTo writes the accumulated
stack traces to w (in essentially the same format that blocking
profiling uses).
