4.10.0

What's Changed

Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉

Please note that going forward, we expect developers to explicitly pin the image version (https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-dotnet/discussions/1470). We consider this a best practice and it aligns with other language implementations.

Also, due to the recent Docker Engine v29 release, TC for .NET pins the Docker Engine API version to 1.44 (see the previous release notes). You can override this default and set it to the version you're using, ideally 1.52, which corresponds to v29, if you're already running it.

4.9.0

What's Changed

This release adds a new configuration (DOCKER_API_VERSION) that lets you pin and downgrade the Docker Engine API version. This was needed because Docker Engine v29 introduced breaking changes that affect Docker.DotNet and Testcontainers for .NET. This release pins the API version to 1.44. So far, no issues or negative side effects have been observed.

I am also working on updating Docker.DotNet to make it fully compatible with Docker Engine v29. There is already a work-in-progress PR.

Thanks to all the contributors who helped with this release 👍.

What's Changed

🐛 Bug Fixes

4.8.0

What's Changed

Thank you to all the contributors 🙌.

In version 4.7.0, we noticed that the reuse hash could change depending on the order of dictionary values. This has been fixed to ensure that dictionary values are processed in a consistent order when generating the reuse hash. As a result, the reuse hash will likely change again with 4.8.0.

Wait strategies now default to the Running mode. This mode expects the container to remain running throughout startup. If the container exits unexpectedly, Testcontainers will throw a ContainerNotRunningException that includes the exit code and container logs.

The container startup callback now includes an additional overload that provides the actual container configuration. If you implement IContainerBuilder<TBuilderEntity, TContainerEntity>, you need to add the container configuration (e.g., IContainerConfiguration) as a third generic type constraint to IContainerBuilder.

IContainerBuilder.WithResourceMapping and IContainer.CopyAsync now include two new optional arguments: uid and gid. If you do not need to specify those, use named arguments for the existing parameters: fileMode or ct.
