Strategies for "cleaning up" after each test

[blevine]

First of all, thanks for creating testcontainers-keycloak. It's a great help in building tests. I'm wondering if you have any recommendations for "resetting" Keycloak in-between tests. If I were writing tests against some other database-backed service, I might just tear down the entire DB between tests. However, stopping and re-launching the entire container is a bit too heavyweight IMO. I could, of course, save references to any entities I've created during the test and delete them in a try/finally clause, but this seems a bit onerous. Do you have any other suggestions for how to "clean up" between tests?

Thanks!

Not really a bullet-proof suggestion, but you can try to setup the testcontainer as usual with private static void..., doing all the basic configurations you need, but do not import a realm.
Then, in a @Before annotated method, import/init the realm through admin API as desired, in an @After annotated method, remove the realm again through admin API. This way, you'll have a new fresh realm for each test method. Give it a try.

Great suggestion. Thanks!
