Testcontainers module for MS SQL Server
You can start a MS SQL Server 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 MS SQL Server 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: mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-CU12 (or, if you are overriding the docker image name/tag, update accordingly).
Please see the [`microsoft-mssql-server` image documentation](https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-mssql-server#environment-variables) for a link to the EULA document.
See Database containers for documentation and usage that is common to all relational database container types.
