Unit testing GORM associations with sqlmock

Question

I'm working on my first Go + Gin + GORM project. I've two models: List and Todo as follows:

type List struct {
    gorm.Model

    Name        string

    Todos []*Todo `gorm:"many2many:list_todos;"`
}

type Todo struct {
    gorm.Model

    Title       string

    Lists []*List `gorm:"many2many:list_todos;"`
}

I've a helper function to add a Todo to a List:

func (self *List) AddTodos(db *gorm.DB, todos ...*Todo) error {
    return db.Model(self).Association("Todos").Append(todos)
}

I want to unit test the AddTodos function. I'm using sqlmock for mocking. This is the code for the unit test:

func TestAddTodosWithNoTodos(t *testing.T) {
    gormDB, db, mock, _ := misc.GetMockedGormDBWithMock()
    defer db.Close()

    mockList := &List{
        Model: gorm.Model{ID: 1},
    }

    mock.NewRows([]string{"id"}).AddRow(mockList.ID)

    if err := mockList.AddTodos(gormDB); err != nil {
        // test fails here
        t.Errorf("Expected no error, got %v", err)
    }

    todos := []Todo{}
    if err := gormDB.Model(mockList).Association("Todos").Find(&todos); err != nil {
        // test also fails here
        t.Errorf("Expected no error, got %v", err)
    }

    if len(todos) != 0 {
        t.Errorf("Expected no todos, got %v", todos)
    }
}

I've marked the two places where the test fails. The error object being checked at both these places are from GORM, however, in the test failure error messages, it is revealed that sqlmock is causing these errors:

First error message:

Expected no error, got all expectations were already fulfilled, call to database transaction Begin was not expected

Second error message:

Expected no error, got all expectations were already fulfilled

I don't want to test which queries are executed, hence, I've not used sqlmock's ExpectQuery. Still, "unexpected queries" are causing errors.

How can I unit test AddTodos without testing the queries it performs?
