## How to run tests
You can run the test suite and example code with
`$ go test -v`
# Running Coverage
To run coverage, first generate the coverage report using `go test`
`go test -v -cover -coverprofile=coverage.out`
You can now show the generated report as a html page with `go tool`
`go tool cover -html=coverage.out`
