Sql driver mock for Golang

sqlmock is a mock library implementing sql/driver. Which has one and only purpose - to simulate any sql driver behavior in tests, without needing a real database connection. It helps to maintain correct TDD workflow.

  • this library is now complete and stable. (you may not find new changes for this reason)
  • supports concurrency and multiple connections.
  • supports go1.8 Context related feature mocking and Named sql parameters.
  • does not require any modifications to your source code.
  • the driver allows to mock any sql driver method behavior.
  • has strict by default expectation order matching.
  • has no third party dependencies.

NOTE: in v1.2.0 sqlmock.Rows has changed to struct from interface, if you were using any type references to that interface, you will need to switch it to a pointer struct type. Also, sqlmock.Rows were used to implement driver.Rows interface, which was not required or useful for mocking and was removed. Hope it will not cause issues.

Looking for maintainers

I do not have much spare time for this library and willing to transfer the repository ownership to person or an organization motivated to maintain it. Open up a conversation if you are interested. See #230.

Install

go get github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock

Documentation and Examples

Visit godoc for general examples and public api reference. See .travis.yml for supported go versions. Different use case, is to functionally test with a real database - go-txdb all database related actions are isolated within a single transaction so the database can remain in the same state.

See implementation examples:

Something you may want to test, assuming you use the go-mysql-driver

package main

import (
	"database/sql"

	_ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
)

func recordStats(db *sql.DB, userID, productID int64) (err error) {
	tx, err := db.Begin()
	if err != nil {
		return
	}

	defer func() {
		switch err {
		case nil:
			err = tx.Commit()
		default:
			tx.Rollback()
		}
	}()

	if _, err = tx.Exec("UPDATE products SET views = views + 1"); err != nil {
		return
	}
	if _, err = tx.Exec("INSERT INTO product_viewers (user_id, product_id) VALUES (?, ?)", userID, productID); err != nil {
		return
	}
	return
}

func main() {
	// @NOTE: the real connection is not required for tests
	db, err := sql.Open("mysql", "root@/blog")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer db.Close()

	if err = recordStats(db, 1 /*some user id*/, 5 /*some product id*/); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

Tests with sqlmock

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"testing"

	"github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock"
)

// a successful case
func TestShouldUpdateStats(t *testing.T) {
	db, mock, err := sqlmock.New()
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("an error '%s' was not expected when opening a stub database connection", err)
	}
	defer db.Close()

	mock.ExpectBegin()
	mock.ExpectExec("UPDATE products").WillReturnResult(sqlmock.NewResult(1, 1))
	mock.ExpectExec("INSERT INTO product_viewers").WithArgs(2, 3).WillReturnResult(sqlmock.NewResult(1, 1))
	mock.ExpectCommit()

	// now we execute our method
	if err = recordStats(db, 2, 3); err != nil {
		t.Errorf("error was not expected while updating stats: %s", err)
	}

	// we make sure that all expectations were met
	if err := mock.ExpectationsWereMet(); err != nil {
		t.Errorf("there were unfulfilled expectations: %s", err)
	}
}

// a failing test case
func TestShouldRollbackStatUpdatesOnFailure(t *testing.T) {
	db, mock, err := sqlmock.New()
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("an error '%s' was not expected when opening a stub database connection", err)
	}
	defer db.Close()

	mock.ExpectBegin()
	mock.ExpectExec("UPDATE products").WillReturnResult(sqlmock.NewResult(1, 1))
	mock.ExpectExec("INSERT INTO product_viewers").
		WithArgs(2, 3).
		WillReturnError(fmt.Errorf("some error"))
	mock.ExpectRollback()

	// now we execute our method
	if err = recordStats(db, 2, 3); err == nil {
		t.Errorf("was expecting an error, but there was none")
	}

	// we make sure that all expectations were met
	if err := mock.ExpectationsWereMet(); err != nil {
		t.Errorf("there were unfulfilled expectations: %s", err)
	}
}

Customize SQL query matching

There were plenty of requests from users regarding SQL query string validation or different matching option. We have now implemented the QueryMatcher interface, which can be passed through an option when calling sqlmock.New or sqlmock.NewWithDSN.

This now allows to include some library, which would allow for example to parse and validate mysql SQL AST. And create a custom QueryMatcher in order to validate SQL in sophisticated ways.

By default, sqlmock is preserving backward compatibility and default query matcher is sqlmock.QueryMatcherRegexp which uses expected SQL string as a regular expression to match incoming query string. There is an equality matcher: QueryMatcherEqual which will do a full case sensitive match.

In order to customize the QueryMatcher, use the following:

	db, mock, err := sqlmock.New(sqlmock.QueryMatcherOption(sqlmock.QueryMatcherEqual))

The query matcher can be fully customized based on user needs. sqlmock will not provide a standard sql parsing matchers, since various drivers may not follow the same SQL standard.

Matching arguments like time.Time

There may be arguments which are of struct type and cannot be compared easily by value like time.Time. In this case sqlmock provides an Argument interface which can be used in more sophisticated matching. Here is a simple example of time argument matching:

type AnyTime struct{}

// Match satisfies sqlmock.Argument interface
func (a AnyTime) Match(v driver.Value) bool {
	_, ok := v.(time.Time)
	return ok
}

func TestAnyTimeArgument(t *testing.T) {
	t.Parallel()
	db, mock, err := sqlmock.New()
	if err != nil {
		t.Errorf("an error '%s' was not expected when opening a stub database connection", err)
	}
	defer db.Close()

	mock.ExpectExec("INSERT INTO users").
		WithArgs("john", AnyTime{}).
		WillReturnResult(sqlmock.NewResult(1, 1))

	_, err = db.Exec("INSERT INTO users(name, created_at) VALUES (?, ?)", "john", time.Now())
	if err != nil {
		t.Errorf("error '%s' was not expected, while inserting a row", err)
	}

	if err := mock.ExpectationsWereMet(); err != nil {
		t.Errorf("there were unfulfilled expectations: %s", err)
	}
}

It only asserts that argument is of time.Time type.

Change Log

  • 2019-04-06 - added functionality to mock a sql MetaData request
  • 2019-02-13 - added go.mod removed the references and suggestions using gopkg.in.
  • 2018-12-11 - added expectation of Rows to be closed, while mocking expected query.
  • 2018-12-11 - introduced an option to provide QueryMatcher in order to customize SQL query matching.
  • 2017-09-01 - it is now possible to expect that prepared statement will be closed, using ExpectedPrepare.WillBeClosed.
  • 2017-02-09 - implemented support for go1.8 features. Rows interface was changed to struct but contains all methods as before and should maintain backwards compatibility. ExpectedQuery.WillReturnRows may now accept multiple row sets.
  • 2016-11-02 - db.Prepare() was not validating expected prepare SQL query. It should still be validated even if Exec or Query is not executed on that prepared statement.
  • 2016-02-23 - added sqlmock.AnyArg() function to provide any kind of argument matcher.
  • 2016-02-23 - convert expected arguments to driver.Value as natural driver does, the change may affect time.Time comparison and will be stricter. See issue.
  • 2015-08-27 - v1 api change, concurrency support, all known issues fixed.
  • 2014-08-16 instead of panic during reflect type mismatch when comparing query arguments - now return error
  • 2014-08-14 added sqlmock.NewErrorResult which gives an option to return driver.Result with errors for interface methods, see issue
  • 2014-05-29 allow to match arguments in more sophisticated ways, by providing an sqlmock.Argument interface
  • 2014-04-21 introduce sqlmock.New() to open a mock database connection for tests. This method calls sql.DB.Ping to ensure that connection is open, see issue. This way on Close it will surely assert if all expectations are met, even if database was not triggered at all. The old way is still available, but it is advisable to call db.Ping manually before asserting with db.Close.
  • 2014-02-14 RowsFromCSVString is now a part of Rows interface named as FromCSVString. It has changed to allow more ways to construct rows and to easily extend this API in future. See issue 1 RowsFromCSVString is deprecated and will be removed in future
