How do I force Goland to run tests every time?

If no code changes have been made since the last time a test suite was run in Goland 2018.3, and the last test run completed successfully, Goland simply spits out the last set of results instead of actually executing the code. I need to be able to run the tests on demand as part of a demo without having to make and revert a minor code change each time to get it to cooperate. Using Testify for asserts, not sure if that's relevant to the issue I'm seeing.

This is related to the Go 1.10+ caching support for tests. You can read more about it here.

If you wish to disable the caching support in Go, you should run the test command with -count=1 flag. To do the same via GoLand, go to Run | Edit Configurations... | Go Test | <name of your test configuration> | Go tool arguments and add -count=1 as a parameter there, then run the configuration again.

If you want to disable this for all future generated Run Configurations, then follow the same steps as above but go to Edit Configurations... | Default | Go Test instead.
