Development

Prerequisites

• golang is required - version 1.14.x is tested; earlier versions may also work.
• docker is required - version 19.03.x is tested; earlier versions may also work.

Running the tests

The tests have been embedded with the Dockerfile; ensuring that the testing environment is consistent across any docker enabled platform. When the docker image builds, the test are run inside the docker container, on failure they will stop the build.

Run the tests with the following command:

docker build -t datetime-version-resource -f dockerfiles/Dockerfile .
