Typically http servers start a goroutine per client. If your mock server is
doing that
(without seeing the code, we cannot tell), a debugger won't step between
the client
and server goroutines. Put print statements in to tell what is actually
happening.
I have a little library I use constantly to debug in Go. I end up embedding
in
most of my applications. It turns out to be radically
faster to print rather than use a debugger; and printing doesn't care how
many goroutines
you have going at once. https://github.com/glycerine/vprint
