Oracle-XE Module

See Database containers for documentation and usage that is common to all relational database container types.

Usage example

Running Oracle XE as a stand-in for in a test:

public class SomeTest {

    @Rule
    public OracleContainer oracle = new OracleContainer("name_of_your_oracle_xe_image");

    @Test
    public void someTestMethod() {
        String url = oracle.getJdbcUrl();

        ... create a connection and run test as normal

Specifying a docker image name via config

If you do not pass an image name to the OracleContainer constructor, a suitable image name should be placed in configuration instead. To do this, please place a file on the classpath named testcontainers.properties, containing oracle.container.image=IMAGE, where IMAGE is a suitable image name and tag.

Adding this module to your project dependencies

Add the following dependency to your pom.xml/build.gradle file:

Gradle

testCompile "org.testcontainers:oracle-xe:1.14.1"

Maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testcontainers</groupId>
    <artifactId>oracle-xe</artifactId>
    <version>1.14.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Hint

Adding this Testcontainers library JAR will not automatically add a database driver JAR to your project. You should ensure that your project also has a suitable database driver as a dependency.
