# Docker Compose Test Harness

Scaffolds integration test environments using Docker Compose v2 CLI, testcontainers-python library, and the docker-py SDK. Manages service dependencies, health checks, and test data seeding.

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- Docker Engine releases are tagged with a **docker-** prefix (e.g. docker-v29.0.0 for Docker Engine 29.0.0).

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- Moby is an open-source project created by Docker to enable and accelerate software containerization.
- ## Relationship with Docker
- The components and tools in the Moby Project are initially the open source components that Docker and the community have built for the Docker Project.
