Simplifies Go BDD development by colocating Godog step definitions with patterns using directive comments.
Godogen is a specialized tool for Go developers that streamlines Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) by allowing step definitions to be defined directly within Go code via directive comments. It eliminates the boilerplate of manual step registration for the godog framework, providing a cleaner project structure and powerful CLI diagnostics. With its built-in language server capabilities, users can identify undefined, ambiguous, or unused steps, ensuring a robust and maintainable test suite within any Go project.
