Testcontainers and Spring Boot from integration tests to local development!
summary
Testcontainers integrates with Spring Boot to spin up real dependencies—Postgres, Kafka, Redis—during JUnit/Jupiter tests and for local runs, using Testcontainers modules, startables and the dynamic property registry so Spring properties point to mapped container ports. The demo app stores ratings, uses Rest Assured for HTTP assertions and shows migrations, Kafka messaging and health checks all passing. A dev-mode auto-service prototype starts needed containers automatically; extras include a toxic-proxy for network chaos and an upcoming cloud-backed runner.
