The
-test.update-golden
flag is long enough that it can be a challenge for people to remember, especially when golden files are not updated frequently. I've seen other implementations of this pattern use just the-update
flag, which was easier to remember.This PR keeps support for the existing
-test.update-golden
flag, but also adds-update
as an option for updating golden files.In the future there could be other auto-update operations that could make use of this same flag.
