## Don't comment out outdated code
You should delete outdated code instead of commenting it out. Comments should be used for explanation of existing code and outdated code is saved in the git history anyway if you ever need it (in most cases outdated code is never re-used).
## Package names
Package names should be short lowercase identifiers and tests should be written using the black box pattern. Black box testing can be enabled by adding the suffix `_test` to the package names in `*_test.go` files. It will enable you to test your library like it would be used by another developer, without internal access to private variables.
