Better integration tests for Kafka applications with Testcontainers

A presentation at Kafka meetup in in Atlanta, GA, USA by Oleg Šelajev

In this session we look at how Testcontainers libraries can help you create better, more maintainable tests for your applications that communicate with Kafka.

Testcontainers offers programmatic API to create, configure, and use real dependencies of your app in containers. This is an ideal setup for creating ephemeral test environments straight from the tests and making your tests more reliable and trustworthy.
