integration-test-rabbitmq
This Maven plugin allows you to start and stop a RabbitMQ Docker instance as part of your build. This is especially useful if you want to do integration testing, instead of mocking rabbitmq

, with the container name jon
and using the image rabbitmq:3
Caveats
- You need Docker installed on your pc - if you are using windows, im not sure how RabbitMQ docker images work there
- If a container was was started, but the build crashes for some reason, its not cleaned up, you will need to cleanup manually
- You need to always have both the start and stop executions, otherwise the container never stops
- You can only have one instance/build. This is because of a shared state object
