Testcontainers Software Journal Club code

This repository contains the example code I presented in the Testcontainers Software Journal Club session. It uses an Azurite Docker container created using the Testcontainers library to emulate Azure Blob Storage. This repository is a C# solution that can be opened using Visual Studio or any other C# IDE.

Prerequisites

• .NET 8 SDK or later
• A C# IDE, such as Visual Studio
• Docker Desktop
• (optional) Azure Storage Explorer to inspect the contents of the Azurite container while debugging.

Building and Running the Tests

The integration tests can be found the AlbumCoverServiceTests file in the Albums.Test project. You can use the test runner in your IDE, or run dotnet test from the command line. Docker must be running in the background for the tests to work.

Git Branches

• 0-start is the starting point for the Journal Club session.
• 1-containerbuilder uses the ContainerBuilder class to create the Azurite container.
• 2-azurite-module uses the Azurite Testcontainers module to create the Azurite container, as well as making the code debuggable.
