Answer
Testcontainers allows integration tests with real databases.
Testcontainers can spin up a real SQL database in a Docker container, making it possible to run integration tests against a realistic environment. This helps catch issues related to database connectivity and data integrity. In an e-commerce scenario, you might test that order data is correctly saved and retrieved from the database.
