The best time I had so far was with dockertest[0] in go it allows you to spin up containers as part of your test suite which then allows you to test against them. So we have one go pkg that has all our containers that we need regularly.
The biggest benefit there is no need to have a docker compose or have other resources running locally you just can run the test cases if you have docker installed.
