Easy way to close database during tests about embedded-database-spring-test HOT 5 CLOSED

To clarify, it would be nice to be able to do this after using the AutoConfigureEmbeddedDatabase annotation.

No, there is no easy way to manual close the embedded database, but the database is closed and destroyed automatically after all tests are completed.

The only way to do this is to use lower-level api and manage the life cycle of the embedded database manually without using the @AutoConfigureEmbeddedDatabase annotation.

EmbeddedPostgres database = EmbeddedPostgres.builder()
        .setPgBinaryResolver(DefaultPostgresBinaryResolver.INSTANCE)
        .start();
// do some stuff
database.close();

Could this become a feature request? Is this something you would be interested in implementing?

The problem with implementing this feature is that one instance of a running PostgreSQL server can manage multiple databases. This is used to reduce the time needed to create/copy new isolated databases. Ideally, only one instance should be sufficient to run all tests.

So it's not possible to kill the process because it would break the following database tests. The only safe way is to create your own instance and manage it yourself as demonstrated by my example above. I think the use of lower-level api is not so complicated and allows you to have full control over the database, which is what you want.
