package main

import "fmt"
import "os"

func main() {
	cwd, _ := os.Getwd()
	fmt.Printf("CWD: %s\n", cwd)
}

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Launch",
            "type": "go",
            "request": "launch",
            "mode": "debug",
            "remotePath": "",
            "port": 2345,
            "host": "127.0.0.1",
            "program": "${workspaceRoot}",
            "env": {},
            "args": [
                "validate"
            ],
            "showLog": true,
            "cwd": "/home"
        }
    ]
}

Expected behavior: prints "CWD: /home"
Actual behavior: prints "CWD: ...workspaceRoot"

Hi Ramya,
I noticed that cwd and env are ignored while debugging a test file. Is it possible to select the configuration for debugging test files?

@cxww107 AFAIK, the cwd set in the debug config in the launch.json file does get passed to delve regardless of whether you are debugging a test or a program. Please log a new issue with a sample code set and reproducible steps.
