Golang tests with containers without friction

The purpose is to make testing docker containers easier without having to worry about managing them. The main goal of this library is to be as transparent as possible when it comes to a simple suite of unit tests.

To achieve this results this project uses Test Containers Go and Canned Containers

This example has 3 easy steps:

• Call Setup() to receive a db connection and a termination function
• defer teardown() to handle all the docker parts
• The test itself

import (
	"context"
	"github.com/alexrios/ztests/postgres"
	"testing"
)

func Test(t *testing.T) {
	ctx := context.Background()
	testEnv, err := postgres.Setup()
	defer testEnv.Teardown()
	conn, err := testEnv.DB.Conn(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatal(err)
	}
	var twelve int
	row := conn.QueryRowContext(ctx, "select $1", 12)
	err = row.Scan(&twelve)
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatal(err)
	}
	if twelve != 12 {
		t.FailNow()
	}
}
