# Time, Regexes and Testing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Previously on [Rust for Gophers](/blog/series/rust-for-gophers) (name is a work
|
||
|
|
in progress, ideas would be lovely) we covered logging, templating and basic
|
||
|
|
HTTP client/server operations. Go's standard library also has support from some
|
||
|
|
other things too, such as time handling, regular expressions and unit testing.
|
||
|
|
Today we are going to cover their analogs in Rust.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Testing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Programs have a tendency to not do what you want when you write them. Sometimes
|
||
|
|
it's worth trying to see what code actually does and make sure it's what you
|
||
|
|
want it to do. This can help a lot when you are ensuring that types are
|
||
|
|
converted, the right HTTP responses are returned and that any other effects are
|
||
|
|
what you want.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[We plan to go into much more detail about this in the future, however this is
|
||
|
|
just enough about how testing in Rust works to help show these
|
||
|
|
examples.](conversation://Mara/hacker)
