Using Docker for Testing Legacy Code
summary
Claim: Docker plus Arquillian Cube automates full test lifecycles so legacy code gets repeatable integration and UI tests. The demo boots Postgres in containers, starts a Spring Boot app, runs DB population via clean-persistence/DBUnit, and produces green tests plus an MP4 video of the selenium run. Clean-Run configures browsers and simplifies webdriver setup; selenium runs inside a selenium standalone Firefox container. Tests remove boilerplate, handle docker-machine hosts, and stop containers when finished.
