Testing sets os.Stdout to something else before it starts running so that it can accumulate the output. For #1, you save the stdout before testing framework reassigns it, so it is printed to the output, and testing framework cannot see it. For #2, you are using the reassigned stdout, so testing can catch what you wrote to it. > > but anyway; your reply has no relevance i can decern, and replying like > this can put off useful comments. please don't get huffy i don't have the > time/interest, just don't comment anymore. > > On Monday, 2 May 2022 at 03:32:46 UTC+1 peterGo wrote: > >> It looks like you have a bug in your code. >> >> "In tests, standard output is accumulated during execution and dumped to >> standard output when done." >> >> "Example functions may include a concluding line comment that begins with >> "Output:" and is compared with the standard output of the function when the >> tests are run." >> >> In ExampleMain(), you improperly used the os.Stdout variable value as of >> the testing package initialization. >> >> In ExampleMain2(), you properly used the os.Stdout variable value as of >> when the function was run. >> >> testing package >> https://pkg.go.dev/testing@latest >> >> Peter >> >> On Sunday, May 1, 2022 at 8:03:29 PM UTC-4 psi....@gmail.com wrote: >> >>> this caught me out, is it a bug? >>> >>> https://go.dev/play/p/atJb8dZHoqi >>> >> -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "golang-nuts" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to golang-nuts+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/golang-nuts/d8654a21-e060-4bee-842f-e6eb41d21878n%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/golang-nuts/d8654a21-e060-4bee-842f-e6eb41d21878n%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
