Testcontainers and Spring Boot for local development and integration testing
We can't believe it either, but in this live stream we welcome, Josh Long. Josh is a Spring Developer Advocate, Java Champion, Kotlin Google Developer Expert, author of numerous books, best-selling video trainer, open-source contributor, podcaster and YouTuber!
In this episode we looked at adding integration tests to a Spring Boot application, explored a few approaches how Testcontainers allows to manage the lifecycle of the docker dependencies, like a database, tried Testcontainers Cloud to decouple the environments where tests are run and where docker containers are run, and looked at a demo of a autoservices project. The autoservices integrates with the Spring devtools lifecycle and provides a database (or other dockerized services you need, Kafka, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, etc) using Testcontainers if the app doesn't configure any.
You can look at the prototype implementation here: https://github.com/joshlong/testconta...
If you like the idea of auto-services and would like to see it brought to life, please thumbs up and comment on the GitHub issue: https://github.com/spring-projects/sp...
If you have any feedback or ideas about how to improve it, please reach out!
