See Database containers for documentation and usage that is common to all relational database container types.

PostgreSQLContainer can also be used with the following images:

• pgvector/pgvector

Using pgvector inside_block:pgvectorContainer

• postgis/postgis

Using PostGIS inside_block:postgisContainer

• timescale/timescaledb

Using TimescaleDB inside_block:timescaledbContainer

Add the following dependency to your pom.xml/build.gradle file:

=== "Gradle" groovy testImplementation "org.testcontainers:postgresql:{{latest_version}}" === "Maven" xml <dependency> <groupId>org.testcontainers</groupId> <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId> <version>{{latest_version}}</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency>

!!! hint Adding this Testcontainers library JAR will not automatically add a database driver JAR to your project. You should ensure that your project also has a suitable database driver as a dependency.
