Mock Redis

Provide a mock Redis instance and optionally a mock Redis client for testing purposes. This library is built so you can mock Redis instances using real Redis containers. You will need to have Docker running on your local machine or within your CI environment.

This library is built on top of testcontainers.

Usage

Creating a mock instance for creating a customer connection.

func TestXXX(t *testing.T) {
	ctx := context.Background()

	mock, err := mockredis.NewInstance(ctx, t)

	if err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("creating the instance: %v", err)
		return
	}

	// close the mock
	defer mock.Close(ctx)

	// ... my test code
}

Creating a mock redis client for interacting with Redis.

func TestXXX(t *testing.T) {
	ctx := context.Background()

	mock, err := mockredis.NewClient(ctx, t)

	if err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("creating the client: %v", err)
		return
	}

	// close the mock
	defer mock.Close(ctx)

    redisClient := mock.Client()

	// ... my test code
}
