Hibernate & Testcontainers: A Perfect Match For Your Tests?
When writing tests that rely on a database, you are facing 2 challenges:
One, You need to write meaningful tests that ensure that your application works correctly.
And two, You need to provide a test database for each test run.
I can’t help you with the 1st challenge. You know your application a lot better than I do, and I’m sure you will be able to figure this out.
But I can show you a simple technical solution to provide a test database for each test run. Using the Testcontainers library, you can easily start up a Docker container with your database as part of your tests.
