Structs in GoLang

Below is the code with some comments to help clarify each statements role in this.

import "testing"

func TestReverse(t *testing.T) {
    cases := []struct { // declaration of anonymous type
        in, want string // fields on that type called in and want, both strings
    }{
        {"Hello, world", "dlrow ,olleH"},
        {"Hello, 世界", "界世 ,olleH"},
        {"", ""},
    } // composite literal initilization
    // note the use of := in assigning to cases, that op combines declaration and assignment into one statement
    for _, c := range cases { // range over cases, ignoring the index - the underscore means to discard that return value
        got := Reverse(c.in) // c is the current instance, access in with the familiar dot notation
        if got != c.want { // again, access operator on c, the current instance
            t.Errorf("Reverse(%q) == %q, want %q", c.in, got, c.want) // more access
        }
    }
}

Let me know if that helps. I can try giving more of a summary in spoken language or add more details if some of the statements don't make sense still. Also, fyi if you're not familiar range 'ranges' over a collection, returning k, v where k is the index or key and v the value.

EDIT: details on the declaration/initilization of cases

    cases := []struct {
        in, want string
    }

This bit inside the first pair of curly braces is the definition of a struct. This is an anonymous type, a normal declaration would look like this;

    type case struct {
        in string
        want string
    }

If you had something like this then there would be a type called case in the scope of this package (not exported, if you wanted to make it 'public' so it would need to be type Case instead). Instead the examples struct is anonymous. It works the same as normal type, however as a developer, you will have no way to reference that type so you can only practically work with the collection initialized here. Internally this type is the same as any other struct with 2 unexported strings for fields. The fields are named in and want. Notice that in the assignment here cases := []struct you have [] before struct this means you're declaring a slice of this anonymous type.

This next little bit, is called static initialization. This is a syntax for initializing collections as types. Each of these nested bits like {"", ""} is the declaration and initilization of one of these anonymous structs, denoted again by the curly braces. In this case you're assigning two empty strings to in and want respectively (if you don't use names, the order is the same as in the definition). The outer pair of braces is for the slice. If your slice were of say int's or string's, then you would just have the values right there without the extra level of nesting like myInts := []int{5,6,7}.

    {
        {"Hello, world", "dlrow ,olleH"},
        {"Hello, 世界", "界世 ,olleH"},
        {"", ""},
    }
