Integration tests with Kafka and Testcontainers

问题

I see that you're facing an issue with Kafka authentication while using TestContainers. The error message suggests that the Kafka client is being asked for a password, but it doesn't currently support obtaining a password from the user.

This issue might be related to the Kafka security settings in your Kafka setup. In a real application flow, you would typically configure authentication and authorization settings, including usernames and passwords, for your Kafka brokers and clients.

In the context of integration tests using TestContainers, you might need to configure your KafkaContainer to disable authentication if it's not required for your tests. Here's an example of how you can configure it to disable authentication:

public class MyKafkaContainer extends KafkaContainer {

    private static final String KAFKA_DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME = "my_image_name";

    // ...

    private MyKafkaContainer() {
        super(DockerImageName.parse(KAFKA_DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME));
        withEnv("KAFKA_AUTO_CREATE_TOPICS_ENABLE", "false"); // Disable topic auto-creation
        withEnv("KAFKA_CREATE_TOPICS", ""); // Ensure no topics are auto-created
    }

    // ...
}

Please note that disabling authentication should only be done for testing purposes, and in a production environment, you should always ensure proper security configurations are in place.

Once you've disabled authentication in your KafkaContainer, try running your tests again to see if the issue is resolved. If you do require authentication for your tests, you may need to set up your TestContainers environment to match your Kafka security settings more closely.

Remember to replace "my_image_name" with the actual Kafka Docker image name you are using in your project.

I am developing some integration tests for my application, and one of the flows I'm testing uses Kafka to notify some client about the updates. I have created a KafkaContainer:


import org.springframework.test.context.DynamicPropertyRegistry;
import org.springframework.test.context.DynamicPropertySource;
import org.testcontainers.containers.KafkaContainer;
import org.testcontainers.utility.DockerImageName;

import java.time.Duration;

public class MyKafkaContainer extends KafkaContainer {

    private static final String KAFKA_DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME = "my_image_name";

    private static KafkaContainer kafkaContainer;

    private MyKafkaContainer() {
        super(DockerImageName.parse(KAFKA_DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME));
    }

    public static KafkaContainer getInstance() {
        if (kafkaContainer == null) {
            kafkaContainer = new KafkaContainer(DockerImageName.parse(KAFKA_DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME).asCompatibleSubstituteFor("confluentinc/cp-kafka"))
                    .withStartupAttempts(3)
                    .withStartupTimeout(Duration.ofMinutes(3));
        }
        return kafkaContainer;
    }

    @Override
    public void start() {
        super.start();
    }

    @Override
    public void stop() {
        //do nothing, JVM handles shut down
    }
}

After this, I created a initializer class that I used to set the "bootstrap-servers" value as follows:

public class TestContainersInitializer implements ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext> {


    private static final KafkaContainer kafkaContainer;


    static {

        kafkaContainer = MyKafkaContainer.getInstance();


        Startables.deepStart(kafkaContainer).join();
    }

    @Override
    public void initialize(ConfigurableApplicationContext applicationContext) {
        TestPropertyValues.of(
                "spring.kafka.bootstrap-servers=" + kafkaContainer.getBootstrapServers(),
        ).applyTo(applicationContext.getEnvironment());
    }
}

Then I used this class to annotate my test class:

@ContextConfiguration(initializers = TestContainersInitializer.class)

Everything starts up nicely, until the moment my code flow wants to send a message through kafka, then I'm am greeted with this error, when instantiating the producer:

> org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: Could not login: the client is being asked for a password, but the Kafka client code does not currently support obtaining a password from the user. not available to garner authentication information from the user.

Do you have any ideas what this could be about? Should I provide some password in the way it is provided in the real application flow?

I have tried playing around with the keyTab and the principal values, since those are set in the application.properties, but since we use the TestContainer bootstrap server, I don't think I should use any of that. Other than this, I had no other ideas.

I have found out what the problem was, writing this so maybe it will help someone else. In my application's application.properties file the spring.kafka.security.protocol is set to SASL_PLAINTEXT.
After taking a look on this website I found, this option requires some authentication, that is not normally built in TestContainers.

Basically, the fix was to override this in my TestContainersInitializer.initialize() method with:
"spring.kafka.security.protocol=PLAINTEXT"
