Redis Test Helper

This module provides utilities for starting a disposable Redis instance with testcontainers-go. It is useful for integration tests against storage implementations that rely on Redis.

Features

• Starts Redis containers with optional TLS, host/port, address, or URL connection helpers.
• Supports container reuse via WithReuse for faster local iteration.
• Exposes connection details (URL, host/port, addresses, TLS config) through the returned Container struct.

Usage

Import the helper and start a Redis container in your tests:

import (
    testredis "github.com/gofiber/storage/testhelpers/redis"
)

func TestExample(t *testing.T) {
    ctr := testredis.Start(t, "redis:7-alpine")

    // Use ctr.URL, ctr.Host/Port, or ctr.TLSConfig in your test code.
}

Running locally

From the repository root, execute the helper's tests:

cd testhelpers/redis
go test ./... -v -race

Docker must be available and running for the tests to start Redis containers.
