Out of the box, the test suite runs a Docker container using TestContainers by default.
You can change the database type of the server by passing a case-insensitive testing.mysql.database.server
option like this:
> mvn test -Dtesting.mysql.database.server=MySQL
The following database servers are supported:
-
MySQL
-
MariaDB
If the database server is not specified, then MySQL
will be used by default.
You can also change the version of the database by passing an optional Docker tag named testing.mysql.database.version
like this:
> mvn test -Dtesting.mysql.database.version=5.6.45
If the database version is not specified, then 5.7
will be used by default for MySQL while 10.4
will be used by default for MariaDB.
You can run tests with an external database:
-
the script
docker/mysql/resources/create-mysql.sql
creates the test data
You need to add some properties for testing:
> mvn test -Dconnection.uri=mysql://$username:$password@$host:$port/$database
-
connection.uri: configure the client to connect the specified database
