What types of tests do you know? Have you written tests in practice?

In Go, several types of tests are usually distinguished:
- Unit tests — test individual functions or methods in isolation.
- Integration tests — test the interaction between components.
- End-to-end tests (E2E) — test the entire application, simulating user behavior.
- Benchmark tests — measure code performance.
In practice, I wrote unit tests using the standard testing package. For example:
func TestSum(t *testing.T) {
result := Sum(2, 3)
if result != 5 {
t.Errorf("Expected 5, got %d", result)
}
}
I also used integration tests to verify database and external service interactions, employing mock objects and test environments.
