# Godog

## Using the Go Agent with Godog

The Go Agent provides special support for the Ginkgo BDD test framework. When enabled, the agent automatically integrates with Ginkgo's test lifecycle to track test execution.

{% hint style="info" %}
The configuration described here supplements [Step 1: Configuration](/knowledgebase/setup-and-configuration/sealights-agents-and-plugins/go-agent/go-agent-v2/go-agent-how-to-use/test-runner-mode-test-framework.md#configuration) found in the *Steps for Instrumenting a Test Runner with SeaLights Go Agent* 
{% endhint %}

### Configuration

To use the Go Agent with Ginkgo tests, simply add the `--enable-godog` parameter when following the [Steps for Instrumenting a Test Runner with SeaLights Go Agent (Default Usage - Go Test)](/knowledgebase/setup-and-configuration/sealights-agents-and-plugins/go-agent/go-agent-v2/go-agent-how-to-use/test-runner-mode-test-framework.md#step-1-configuration)

**Example Configuration**

Like most other parameters, you can add the Godog parameter in three different ways: [CLI flags, environment variables, or configuration file](/knowledgebase/setup-and-configuration/sealights-agents-and-plugins/go-agent/go-agent-v2/agent-configuration-parameters.md#ways-to-configure-agent-parameters). The examples below demonstrate each approach, using the minimum recommended parameters for a Ginkgo Test Runner. For additional configuration options, see the [Go Agent Parameter Reference Table](/knowledgebase/setup-and-configuration/sealights-agents-and-plugins/go-agent/go-agent-v2/agent-configuration-parameters/go-agent-parameter-reference-table.md).

{% tab title="CLI flags" %}
**Example 1: Add parameters as CLI flags**

```bash
./slgoagent config \
  --token="eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..." \
  --enableGodog 
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Environment variables" %}
**Example 2: Using environment variables**

```bash
export SL_TOKEN="./sltoken.txt"
export SL_ENABLE_GODOG=true

./slgoagent config
```

**Example 2b: Using environment variable with CLI flag**

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```bash
export SL_TOKEN=***

./slgoagent config \
--enableGodog
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Configuration file" %}
**Example 3: Using configuration file**

Create `.slconfig.yaml` in your project root:

```yaml
enableGodog: true
```

Then run:

```bash
./slgoagent config --token="./sltoken.txt"
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sealights.io/knowledgebase/setup-and-configuration/sealights-agents-and-plugins/go-agent/go-agent-v2/go-agent-how-to-use/test-runner-mode-test-framework/godog.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
