Describe the bug
Description:
When running a test inside of another test (a t.Run) and clicking the run test button added in vscode, it runs the test at the cursor, not the test that was clicked.
Expectation:
The test that is run should be the test that is selected.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a go file like the following:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"testing"
)
func TestExample(t *testing.T) {
t.Run("subtest1", func(t *testing.T) {
fmt.Println("In subtest1")
})
t.Run("subtest2", func(t *testing.T) {
fmt.Println("In subtest2")
})
}- Place your cursor inside subtest 2 (e.g. line 14 in the above)
- Click the
run testadded by vscode before line 9 - Observe that the output is
-run ^TestExample$/^subtest2$instead of-run ^TestExample$/^subtest1$
