• Getting Started with Node.js

Containers

For running containers, we have the following options:

• Use Docker Desktop to run the containers locally
• Use Testcontainers Desktop App to run containers locally (embedded runtime) or in the Testcontainers cloud (300min for free)
• Use GitHub Actions to run a Testcontainer

Testcontainers Cloud

• Your Account Dashboard

GitHub Actions

This project contains a GitHub Action which runs the Jest-Tests (Integration-Tests) in a Testcontainer when pushing/merging to main.

Resources

• Enable reusable containers

Playwright

It is recommended to use Docker image version that matches Playwright version. If the Playwright version in your Docker image does not match the version in your project/tests, Playwright will be unable to locate browser executables.
