- Docker Toolbox for Windows needs to be installed
- Currently Docker for Windows without Toolbox (Linux VM) is not supported
Due to the early state of windows support and lack of CI, Testcontainers for Windows is only integrated in the windows-support branch. If you want to use this branch then follow the Jitpack project setup and use the following configuration:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.testcontainers</groupId>
<artifactId>testcontainers-java</artifactId>
<version>windows-support-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
The following features are not available or do not work correctly so make sure you do not use them or use them with caution. The list may not be complete.
- MySQL server prevents custom configuration file (ini-script) from being loaded due to security measures (link to feature description)
Please report any issues with the Windows build of Testcontainers here and be sure to note that you are using this on Windows.
