SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Podman Compose-based integration testing provides repeatable, isolated environments for running TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ, reducing flaky tests and setup time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated container lifecycle management with Podman Compose for reliable test environments.
  • Shared database and messaging infrastructure setup, including predefined schemas and users.
  • Use Case: Run end-to-end integration tests locally or in CI to validate data flow between TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ.

Quick Start

Run the integration tests to spin up Podman-managed TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ containers and execute the test suite.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run integration tests for TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ using Podman?

Run integration tests for TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ using Podman by executing lifecycle scripts with podman-compose. This spins up isolated, repeatable test environments to validate data flow and messaging pipelines locally or in CI.

What is Podman-based test orchestration for containerized databases and message queues?

Podman-based test orchestration is a method to manage container lifecycles for databases and message queues. It provides deterministic, repeatable test environments by defining configurations and applying lifecycle scripts for end-to-end integration testing.

Do I need podman-compose to run container testing for RabbitMQ and TimescaleDB?

Yes, you need podman-compose to run container testing for RabbitMQ and TimescaleDB. The orchestration requires both Podman and podman-compose to define environments, manage container lifecycles, and execute deterministic integration tests.

Can I use Podman containers for local CI pipeline integration testing?

Yes, you can use Podman containers for local CI pipeline integration testing. The orchestration applies to local CI pipelines and developer machines, spinning up managed TimescaleDB and RabbitMQ containers to execute reliable end-to-end test suites.

Why does my integration test setup flake when running database schemas and messaging pipelines?

Integration test setups flake when running database schemas and messaging pipelines due to inconsistent environments. Podman Compose-based orchestration reduces flaky tests by providing shared infrastructure with predefined schemas, ensuring deterministic test execution.
