Question

My development environment(JDK, Maven) is setup within WSL2. With this setup, there are test failures

[INFO] BUILD FAILURE

Line 23 of DatabaseTests is:

@ClassRule
public static OracleContainer oracleContainer = new OracleContainer();

The complete source code is available on github .

Any suggestions to fix this issue?

Answer 1

From the documentation of the Oracle-XE Module :

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.

I see nothing in your code that does this. new OracleContainer() is not enough.
