Upgrading mysql connector version to 8.0 from 5.1.42

Question

Will this upgrade work with com.mysql.jdbc.Driver? Because with change in driver ie com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver throws could not start container error.

ERROR [main] 0].tryStart(264) | Could not start container

Added below dependency in pom.xml

     <dependency>
        <groupId>mysql</groupId>
        <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
        <version>8.0.19</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>

in ds.properties file

 datasource.name=coreDS
 datasource.driver=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
 datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:18082/core?useSSL=false&requireSSL=false&verifyServerCertificate=false&profileSQL=true&maxQuerySizeToLog=16384&serverTimezone=America/New_York
 datasource.username=root
 datasource.password=mysql

The code which starts the container:

public static GenericContainer mysqlCore;

    mysqlCore = new MySQLImageContainer(testProperties.get("mysql.docker.image").toString())
            .withUsername(testProperties.get("db.username").toString())
            .withPassword(testProperties.get("db.password").toString())
            .withDatabaseName("core");
    mysqlCore.setPortBindings(Arrays.asList(testProperties.get("mysql.core.db.port").toString() + ":3306/tcp"));

    System.out.println(" starting mysql container");
    mysqlCore.start();

Answer 1

The error was resolved by upgrading Test container to 1.14.3 along with new mysql driver and mysql connector 8.0 version.
