Testcontainers

Libraries for integration testing with real Docker containers

About Testcontainers

A family of libraries that support tests with throwaway instances of databases, browsers and other services running in Docker containers, making integration tests reproducible across machines and CI. It is free and open source, so teams can self-host it, inspect the code and adapt it to their own infrastructure without licence fees or vendor lock-in. Typical users run it alongside existing workflows to cut manual effort, improve visibility and keep full control over data, configuration and upgrades over time.
