Title: Show HN: AssertGo – Fluent Assertion Library for Go

A developer released AssertGo, a fluent assertion library for Go inspired by AssertJ, after Go 1.27 added generic methods. The library provides chainable assertions for strings, integers, slices, maps, and types. It is available on GitHub and was built with AI assistance for code generation.

I like AssertJ-style fluent assertions. I tried to find a library that does that for Go, but couldn't. So I wrote my own some time ago, but I didn't quite like it. A few days ago I heard about Go 1.27 and the addition of generic methods, so I gave it another try. I like the way it came out this time. Most of the code was written with 1.26. Just now, after the 1.27 RC release, I changed the top-level methods to be generic - previously they were any . As for the AI: I used Claude Sonnet, but as a codegen more than anything else. All the design choices are mine, and everything is done in small, incremental commits. https://github.com/sku0x20/assertgo Some examples: T t .Assert "hello" .EqualTo "hello" T t .AssertInt 10 .GreaterThan 5 T t .AssertSlice int{1, 2, 3} .ContainsAll int{1, 3} T t .AssertMap map string int{"a": 1} .HasLength 1 T t .AssertType 42 .Is int Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48678760 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48678760 Points: 1 Comments: 0
