About Testcontainers for Go

Testcontainers for Go is a Go package that makes it simple to create and clean up container-based dependencies for automated integration/smoke tests. The clean, easy-to-use API enables developers to programmatically define containers that should be run as part of a test and clean up those resources when the test is done.

To start using Testcontainers for Go please read our quickstart guide.

GoDoc

Inline documentation and docs where the code live is crucial for us. Go has nice support for them and we provide examples as well. Check it out at pkg.go.dev/github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-go.
