Applications today don't exist in a vacuum. They typically communicate with other services, such as databases, message brokers, cache servers, and more. These interconnectivity requirements make it hard to do local/inner-loop development and testing efficiently, often forcing developers to write lots of code and configuration that never gets to production.

What if there was a better way? What if you didn’t need to write any extra code or configuration and things just worked out of the box, making your life simpler and easier?

This session will introduce Testcontainers and explore the synergy between Testcontainers and Quarkus, showcasing all the integration that has been done for you, the developer, so that you don’t need to worry about anything!

We did this session with Eric Deansdrea (Red Hat), and it turned out pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x44dL5jzaG4
