Removing Complexity from Integration Tests Using Testcontainers

Discover how to enhance your integration testing for microservices using Testcontainers in this 43-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Learn to implement lightweight, disposable instances of databases, Selenium web browsers, and other Docker-compatible services to create robust integration tests. Explore the process of integrating Testcontainers-based tests into a typical microservice application, utilizing real PostgreSQL databases and local Kafka clusters for testing and service isolation. Gain valuable insights on adding powerful integration tests to your codebase while eliminating the hassle of manually managing external service dependencies.
