Functions

func StringOrDie

func StringOrDie(t testing.TB, in any) string

StringOrDie renders its input using ToMap, and returns a string containing the result. If rendering yields an error, calls t.Fatal.

func ToMap

func ToMap(in any) (map[string]any, error)

ToMap renders an input value of any type as a map. This is intended for logging human-readable data dumps in test logs, so it uses the `json` tags on struct fields: this makes it easy to exclude `"-"` values that are typically not interesting, respect omitempty, etc.

We also replace any []byte fields with a hash of their value. This is usually sufficient for test log purposes, and is a lot more readable than a big array of individual byte values like Go would normally stringify a byte slice.

func ToString

func ToString(in any) string

ToString renders its input using ToMap, and returns a string containing the result or an error if that fails.
