Arvid Heise commented on FLINK-19554: ------------------------------------- I made good experiences with [testcontainers|https://www.testcontainers.org/] and would strongly encourage to consider it as a part of the testing framework for external components. In any case, we should strongly push for docker as a reliable way to resolve external dependencies. > Unified testing framework for connectors > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-19554 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19554 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Connectors / Common, Test Infrastructure > Reporter: Qingsheng Ren > Assignee: Qingsheng Ren > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Fix For: 1.12.0 > > > As the community and eco-system of Flink growing up, more and more > Flink-owned and third party connectors are developed and added into Flink > community.
