Overview

Package pgtest provides simple utility functions for creating temporary databases in PostgreSQL. It was designed to be used in integration tests in the following way:

func TestSomethingThatUsesPostgres(t *testing.T) {

    // create pool and schedule cleanup function
    pool, cleanup := pgtest.PrepareWithSchema(t, "../storage/schema/schema.sql")
    defer cleanup()
    // use pool in your code
    accountID := prepareTestAccount(t, pool)
    ...
}

It's not production ready and was specifically tailored for spendshelf-backend requirements.
