Description

I wonder if we could make use of test containers instead of docker-compose usage.

The price is the lifecycle (bringing containers up and down for every suite). On the other hand, tests would be more separated. Also DBs living for a less time - means consuming less resources.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing docker-compose usage for test and CI environments and comparing it with Test Containers lifecycle behavior. Clarify whether the goal is per-suite container isolation and shorter-lived databases, then define the selected approach and how completion will be verified in tests and CI.
