# Testcontainers

[Testcontainers](https://testcontainers.com/) is a testing library that provides easy and lightweight APIs for bootstrapping integration tests with real services wrapped in Docker containers.

Qdrant is available as a [Testcontainers module](https://testcontainers.com/modules/qdrant/) in multiple languages. It  facilitates the spawning of a Qdrant instance for end-to-end testing.

## Usage

```java
import org.testcontainers.qdrant.QdrantContainer;

QdrantContainer qdrantContainer = new QdrantContainer("qdrant/qdrant");
```

```go
import (
    "github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-go"
    "github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-go/modules/qdrant"
)

qdrantContainer, err := qdrant.RunContainer(ctx, testcontainers.WithImage("qdrant/qdrant"))
```

```typescript
import { QdrantContainer } from "@testcontainers/qdrant";

const qdrantContainer = await new QdrantContainer("qdrant/qdrant").start();
```

```python
from testcontainers.qdrant import QdrantContainer

qdrant_container = QdrantContainer("qdrant/qdrant").start()
```

Testcontainers modules provide options/methods to configure ENVs, volumes, and virtually everything you can configure in a Docker container.
