Ah! That’s what I didn’t understand. So its not a container for executing unit tests. Its a container for dependencies to support unit tests. That is not clear from the readme unless I missed something
edit - the title could be “Self terminating containers for real world dependencies to support your unit tests”
This feels more like an integration test than a unit test to me. Maybe that’s not an important distinction to make, but it feels like it would also help communicate intent.

Thanks man, my brain was short-circuited on Testcontainers so I couldn’t write better. Also I am stealing the title.

I’m reading this scratching my head going “If your unit tests need a database they ain’t a unit test”.
