Testcontainers: Making Sense of the Software Testing Landscape with Sergei Egorov

About This Episode:

Did you know that, on average, an application touches more than 50 external dependencies? How do you test in this scenario? In this episode, Sergei Egorov will explain how to handle tricky integration testing scenarios. Learn about TestContainers, a cool way to create throwaway instances of common databases, Selenium web browsers, or anything else that can run in a Docker container. This will help you test everything from databases to APIs to other microservices in ways you might not have thought possible—at least not quickly. Listen up!
