pgweb
Web-based PostgreSQL database browser written in Go.
Overview

Before running tests, make sure you have PostgreSQL server running on localhost:5432
interface. Also, you must have postgres user that could create new databases
in your local environment. Pgweb server should not be running at the same time.
Execute test suite:
make test
If you're using Docker locally, you might also run pgweb test suite against all supported PostgreSQL version with a single command:
make test-all
