Testing for your GitHub Copilot-built Go app
Expert testing for Go apps built with GitHub Copilot. We audit GitHub Copilot-generated Go code for testing issues. From $19.
GitHub Copilot issues we find in Go projects
Problems specific to GitHub Copilot's code generation patterns when building Go apps.
Insecure code patterns from training data
Copilot sometimes suggests patterns from its training data that are known to be insecure — like using eval(), innerHTML, or outdated crypto functions.
Hardcoded secrets in suggestions
Copilot occasionally suggests placeholder API keys or credentials that look real and get committed to version control.
Inconsistent code style across files
Different completions use different patterns — sometimes callbacks, sometimes async/await, sometimes .then(). The codebase becomes inconsistent over time.
Go testing issues we check for
Testing-specific Go problems that need attention before production.
Ignored error returns
The most common AI-generated Go anti-pattern: using _ to discard error returns from functions. Errors are silently ignored, and the code continues with zero or nil values, causing subtle data corruption.
Insecure default HTTP server
Using http.ListenAndServe with no timeouts configured. The default Go HTTP server has no read, write, or idle timeouts — making it vulnerable to slowloris and resource exhaustion attacks.
SQL injection via string formatting
Building SQL queries with fmt.Sprintf instead of using parameterized queries with database/sql placeholders, enabling injection attacks.
