Description

Running Docker Desktop Windows 2.1.0.5 and using JUnit 4 with annotations BeforeClass and AfterClass to setup a container that multiple Test cases can be run against. Each test case does an execInContainer. Each test works if run separately. If entire Test class is run then whatever the second execInContainer that is run will hang. Using docker command line tools I can exec a shell to the container created by testcontainers and see that the command specified in execInContainer is not running. If I attach a debugger I see that the execInContainer is parked waiting for a response. Stack trace:

Research direction

Reproduce the repeated execInContainer case in the linked epics2web project using its Gradle tests, then inspect ExecInContainerPattern and ContainerState around the awaitCompletion call shown in the stack trace. Done means successive execInContainer calls complete rather than hanging on the second invocation on Docker Desktop Windows.
