DB2 Module

Testcontainers module for DB2

Usage example

You can start a DB2 container instance from any Java application by using:

<!--codeinclude-->

Container definition inside_block:container

<!--/codeinclude-->

!!! warning "EULA Acceptance" Due to licencing restrictions you are required to accept an EULA for this container image. To indicate that you accept the DB2 image EULA, call the acceptLicense() method, or place a file at the root of the classpath named container-license-acceptance.txt, e.g. at src/test/resources/container-license-acceptance.txt. This file should contain the line: ibmcom/db2:11.5.0.0a (or, if you are overriding the docker image name/tag, update accordingly).

See Database containers for documentation and usage that is common to all relational database container types.
