What does it do?

Delver makes the command line interface for starting dlv the same as the one used in go test

Example

Say you're using this when developing/testing:

go test -v -count=1 -run '^TestMyFunc$' ./pkg/api/tests

And want to switch to debugging it with dlv. You can't just swap the program and have it work.

-go test -v -count=1 -run '^TestMyFunc$' ./pkg/api/tests
+dlv test -v -count=1 -run '^TestMyFunc$' ./pkg/api/tests

Delver fixes this. Now you can do:

delver test -v -count=1 -run '^TestMyFunc$' ./pkg/api/tests

You'll get dropped into dlv like so:

delver is running cmd:
[dlv test --build-flags./pkg/api/tests -- -test.v -test.count=1 -test.run '^TestMyFunc$' ./pkg/api/tests]

Type 'help' for list of commands.
