Inter-container Communications with Testcontainers
I recently found myself in need of having two different Testcontainers communicate with each other. To someone more familiar with Docker, the solution might have been more obvious, but, alas, I am not that man. :P After asking in the Testcontainer Slack, I got a pointer, so I thought I’d share it here in case it might help someone else.

WildFly, Arquillian, Testcontainers, and Kafka
Back again with another Testcontainers example. This time, though, the environment is a bit different. We’ll be looking at a Jakarta EE application using WildFly and MicroProfile Reactive Messaging (MP RM), and we’re going to test it using Arquillian and Testcontainers. Let’s get to it. :)

Quarkus Dev Services, jOOQ, Flyway, and Testcontainers: A Full Example
I have written a few posts about using Quarkus with Testcontainers, Flyway, and jOOQ. Since posting those, I’ve learned some new tricks that have changed how I integrate the various tools. In this post, I’d like to share a complete example that shows how use Quarkus, Quarkus Dev Services, Testcontainers, and Flyway together for a zero (ish) local config setup.

Testing with Quarkus, jOOQ, and Testcontainers Redux
In a recent post, I showed how one could fairly easily test your Quarkus application against a Testcontainers-managed Postgres database. While that works great, my set up is a little more complex, and I found the solution lacking. In a nutshell, as part of my build, I use Flyway with H2 to create a schema, then jOOQ’s code generation against H2 to create the needed classes. That all worked well enough until I found some types that didn’t quite map correctly against newer versions of H2 (a security issue necessitated the update), so I decided I should finally make use of the same database from start to finish. In this post, I’ll show how I did it.

Testing with Quarkus, jOOQ, and Testcontainers
In a project I’ve been working on, I’ve been targeting PostgreSQL, but testing with H2. While that works, I’m a big fan of having the test environment match production as much as possible. That said, I don’t like to have external system dependencies for tests, such as requiring having a database installed. That’s where Testcontainers comes in. In this post, I’ll look at how I integrated Testcontainers into my Quarkus+jOOQ project
