[BUG] assert.New() is broken on go1.8

[tubzby]

func TestFunc(t *testing.T) {
	assert := assert.New(t)
}

Error message:

[compiler InvalidIfaceAssign] [E] cannot use t (variable of type *testing.T) as assert.TestingT value in argument to assert.New: wrong type for method Errorf (have func(format string, args ...invalid type), want func(format string, args ...interface{}))

Same for require pkg

go version go1.18 darwin/amd64 golang.org/x/tools/gopls v0.8.1

=== upd ===

the next day it somehow worked, although the versions did not change.

Same here.

Works on 1.18 for me. Are you sure your editors are updated correctly? This looks like #1138 again.

[Guilospanck]

Yeah, for me now it's ok. Maybe vscode was taking time to update. But now there are no errors.

[tubzby]

After upgrading my gopls to v0.8.1, no more error.

you need to re-compile or update gopls with go1.18. If you are using Homebrew to install gopls, run brew reinstall gopls --install-from-sources.

For me, It fixed my VSCode using CMD + SHIFT + P -> Go: Install/Update Tools

I am gettiing a similar type of error when i try to run linters on my code using a pipeline.

That's my kind of fix: 3k errors to zero errors with one click!

This discussion doesn't seem relevant anymore. Closing.
