- Rafael Lopes: Concurrency Testing in Go: Exploring testing/synctest in Go 1.24
Go 1.24 introduces testing/synctest, a powerful new package designed to make concurrency testing safer and more deterministic. In this talk, we'll dive into how synctest works, explore its practical use cases, and see how it can help catch subtle race conditions in real-world projects. Whether you're maintaining critical systems or building scalable apps, this session will give you the tools to test concurrent code with greater confidence.
19:00 it's pizza time! And another chance to chat with your fellow gopher!
- Nikita Alkhovik: Unit Testing in Practice: Do's and Don'ts
In this talk, we'll walk through common mistakes developers make when writing unit tests. For each anti-pattern, we'll explore why it's a problem and how to improve it with real-world examples and practical advice. Whether you're just starting with unit testing or looking to level up your test quality, this talk will give you actionable insights to write cleaner, more reliable and maintainable tests.

- Nikita - I am a software developer with hands-on experience building event-driven systems with a moderate amount of business logic. I believe in well-designed software that is completely maintainable and well-scalable. I am into Domain-Driven Design, Clean Architecture, and Automated Testing. I enjoy everything that can be declaratively defined in plain text. I like to learn and share my experience with others.
