Better use t.Fatal or t.Skip.

Add a reference to -test.shuffle:
randomize the execution order of tests in testify suites, like -test.shuffle

Add a comment mentionning that the test reliability relies on the algorithm used by package math/rand. If that algorithm changes the seed value may have to be adapted.

The test doesn't have to run in -race mode which is slower.

This seems a good feature to add. |

@dolmen thanks for review! I have fixed all the issues, if you have time, could you review it again? |
|
@dolmen I'm sorry to bother you, but any chance to be reviewed again? |

This implementation requires users of package suite to use a specific kind of Suite. This is inconsistent with the shuffle flag of go test.
I think it would be better to instead change the default behavior of Suite. It would be appreciated if you could submit that alternative implementation as a separate PRs to let us choose the one to merge.

This patch conflicts with #1471 which will soon be merged. |

Summary
Add flag
-testify.shuffle=(off|on|N)to randomize execution of a suite's testsChanges
Add flag
-testify.shuffle=(off|on|N)Motivation
If go 1.17 was added ability to run test in random order.
I'd like to randomize tests inside suite.
Example usage (if applicable)
go test -testify.shuffle=on ./...
