name: docker-compose-tests description: Use Gradle Compose tasks to prepare and recover local Elasticsearch/OpenSearch test infrastructure in kt-search. Trigger this skill when tests or docs generation require a running cluster (especially localhost:9990), when instructions say to run ./gradlew composeUp before tests, or when compose startup fails due stale/conflicting containers.
Docker Compose Tests
Use Gradle Compose tasks, not raw docker compose commands, for this repository.
Standard Workflow
- Start test infrastructure:
./gradlew composeUp - Run the target tests (examples):
./gradlew :docs:test --tests '*DocumentationTest*' --rerun-tasks./gradlew :search-client:jvmTest - Optionally stop infrastructure:
./gradlew composeDown
Recovery Workflow
If composeUp fails with container name conflicts (for example /testes):
./gradlew composeDown./gradlew composeUp- Re-run the failed test command
Rules
- Prefer
./gradlew composeUpas the canonical startup path. - Do not disable docs examples to bypass failing docs tests.
- Regenerate docs with test commands (not manual edits of generated outputs).
