README

sift

A lightweight terminal UI for displaying Go tests.

Sift solves the problem of verbose Go test logs by allowing you to show/hide the logs at an individual tests level.

Installation

go install github.com/timtatt/sift@v0.4.0

Usage

sift works by consuming the verbose json output from the go test command. The easiest way to use it is to pipe | the output straight into sift

go test {your-go-package} -v -json | sift

# eg. 
go test ./... -v -json | sift

Keymaps

To see the available keymaps, press ?. The keymaps are based on vim motion standard keymaps for scrolling and managing folds

Search

Press / to search and filter tests:

• Type to filter tests using fuzzy matching (case-insensitive)
• Press enter to exit search mode while keeping the filter active
• Press esc to clear the search filter and show all tests

Feature Roadmap

• Filter tests by status (pass/fail/skip)
• Support for light mode
• Add inline mode to show test summary
• Add animated chars

Bug Fixes

• Add responsive wrapping for the help
• When items collapsed and viewport is too large, rerender to remove whitespace

The UI design of sift is heavily inspired by the vitest cli
