Testing MQTT Client Applications using HiveMQ Broker Test Containers
The HiveMQ Testcontainer enables testing MQTT client applications and integration testing of custom HiveMQ extensions. It allows the automatic start of HiveMQ Docker containers for JUnit4 and JUnit5 tests.
Automatic testing of MQTT client applications is challenging since an MQTT Broker deployment of some kind is required. If you use a locally installed MQTT Broker for testing, you can't be sure that the tests run with the same results in a different environment. When you use a public MQTT broker, it is always possible for other clients to interfere with your test, and you are fully dependent on the uptime of the public MQTT broker. The solution, therefore, is the HiveMQ Testcontainer.
