Failpoints are getting executed while running tests using `go test -v`

samplestruct.go、main.go、sample_test.goを使用して、go test -vとビルド済みの./modv1実行ファイルを比較し、報告を再現します。TestFailpoint中にGO_FAILPOINTSがどのように設定され、使用されるかを調査し、テストバイナリ内でfailpointが実行されるかどうかを確認します。完了とは、動作が説明され、テスト時に期待される動作が再現可能なテストまたは明確なドキュメントによってカバーされていることを意味します。

I have the following setup (all in the same directory):

2. What did you expect to see?
   When I run go build and set the environment variable export GO_FAILPOINTS=main/doubleIncrement=return(true);main/testPanic=return(true) and then execute the ./modv1 executable I see that the failpoints in samplestruct.go are hit and the failpoint closure is executed. I expected same behavior when I run go test -v i.e. when the TestFailpoint test is executed.

3. What did you see instead?
   I did not see the failpoints in samplestruct.go getting executed while running the test TestFalipoint. Is this expected behavior? Is the failpoint code executed only in the compiled binary modv1 and not during test execution even though the environment variable GO_FAILPOINTS is kept around (and additionally also set/unset during) test execution?
