Temporal

Introduction

The Testcontainers module for Temporal — a durable execution platform for running reliable, long-running workflows.

This module spins up the Temporal dev server (temporalio/temporal) which includes the Temporal server, a preconfigured default namespace, and the Web UI.

Adding this module to your project dependencies

Please run the following command to add the Temporal module to your python dependencies:

pip install testcontainers[temporal]

To interact with the server you will also need a Temporal SDK, for example:

pip install temporalio
