Testing Linked List Operations Implementation in Hello-Algo

A comprehensive Go test suite that validates linked list operations in the Hello-Algo repository. This test file verifies core linked list functionality including initialization, insertion, deletion, access, and node searching operations.

Test Coverage Overview

The test suite provides thorough coverage of essential linked list operations:

  • Node initialization and linking
  • Node insertion functionality
  • Node removal operations
  • Index-based node access
  • Value-based node search
Edge cases and basic linked list operations are validated through a structured test flow.

Implementation Analysis

The testing approach utilizes Go’s native testing framework with a single comprehensive test function (TestLinkedList). The implementation follows Go’s testing conventions and demonstrates clear state verification through fmt.Println statements for visual inspection of list modifications.

The test structure implements a practical example of linked list manipulation with actual data structures.

Technical Details

Testing tools and configuration:

  • Go testing package (testing)
  • Custom package imports from hello-algo/pkg
  • ListNode structure implementation
  • Print utilities for linked list visualization
  • Standard Go test execution environment

Best Practices Demonstrated

The test exhibits several quality testing practices:

  • Clear test case organization with distinct operation sections
  • Proper test function naming conventions
  • Visual result verification through structured output
  • Comprehensive operation validation
  • Clean and maintainable test structure
