How can I write a Go test that writes to stdin?

Question

Say that I have a simple application that reads lines from stdin and simply echoes it back to stdout. For example:

package main

import (
    \"bufio\"
    \         


        

Answer 1

Instead of doing everything in main with stdin and stdout, you can define a function that takes an io.Reader and an io.Writer as parameters and does whatever you want it to do. main could then call that function and your test function could test that function directly.
