How to exclude or skip specific directory while running 'go test'

Question

go test $(go list ./... | grep -v /vendor/) -coverprofile .testCoverage.txt

I am using the above command to test the files but there is 1 folder with the name "Store" that I want to exclude from tests. How it can be done?

Solution

You're already doing it:

$(go list ./... | grep -v /vendor/)

The grep -v /vendor/ part is to exclude the /vendor/ directory. So just do the same for your Store directory:

go test $(go list ./... | grep -v /Store/) -coverprofile .testCoverage.txt

Note that excluding /vendor/ this way is not necessary (unless you're using a really old version of Go). If you are using an old version of Go, you can combine them:

go test $(go list ./... | grep -v /vendor/ | grep -v /Store/) -coverprofile .testCoverage.txt
