Only reuse reaper containers created by testcontainers-node - #1453
kilisamemarisaaa wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
findReaperContainers matched any running Ryuk on the host, so on a CI host shared between testcontainers-node and another language binding (e.g. testcontainers-python), Node workers adopted the other binding's reaper every worker minted a fresh session id and asked the adopted reaper to watch a session it was never durably told about — leaking every container created under it. Narrow the adoption predicate: require org.testcontainers.lang === "node" (this library already labels everything it creates with it via createLabels()) and require a durable org.testcontainers.session-id label. A reaper whose session cannot be identified is left to the binding that owns it, and the node run starts its own reaper instead of silently losing reaping.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughReaper discovery now uses a shared predicate that requires a running Node reaper with a session ID and excludes test reapers. Unit and Docker-backed tests cover foreign-language, unidentified, stopped, test, and shared-host containers. ChangesReaper discovery
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Reaper adoption is restricted to Node-labeled sessions, but an empty session label can still be reused and the foreign-reaper cases do not fully prove language-based exclusion.

Make the foreign-reaper fixtures identifiable.
Both fixtures omit org.testcontainers.session-id. Each test can pass if the Node-language condition is removed because the missing session label rejects the container first. Add a non-empty session label to each foreign reaper.

Reject empty session identifiers.
typeof ... === "string" accepts "". A running Node Ryuk with an empty session label can pass this predicate and be reused with an empty sessionId. Require a non-empty session identifier and add an empty-label case.

Self-review correction on my own PR, following the repo's cross-language guidance (I cited a de-facto-reference sentence without evidence — that was sloppy): I verified the Java binding now: So the de-facto reference behavior is actually stricter than this PR's predicate: mature bindings don't adopt foreign reapers period, which further supports narrowing the node-side adoption predicate (here we keep the useful cross-process reuse of node-owned reapers, but refuse anything the binding can't own). I could not complete a verified check of the Python binding from this environment — leaving that part to reviewers rather than asserting it. |

Hi @kilisamemarisaaa, thanks for raising.
Indeed, but in testcontainers-go and other langs where test frameworks spawn separate processes per test suite (e.g. jest/vitest), we decided that testcontainers-node should reuse reaper containers should they exist. Otherwise for example if you have 20 cores and are running 20 tests, it doesn't make much sense to have 20 ryuk containers. I agree though it's not the intention that a testcontainers-node process picks up a ryuk container from a testcontainers-python process, and the solution to narrow down on language makes sense.

Fixes #1442
Problem
findReaperContainersmatched any running Ryuk on the host. On a CI host shared between atestcontainers-nodeproject and e.g. atestcontainers-pythonproject, Node workers adopted the Python binding's reaper. A foreign reaper carries noorg.testcontainers.session-idlabel, so every worker fell intoand minted a fresh per-worker session id — asking the adopted reaper to watch a session it was never durably told about. Every container created under those ids leaks once the run ends (measured 13/13 and 23/23 reproductions in the issue).
Fix
Extract the adoption predicate into
reaper-discovery.tsand narrow it so this binding only adopts a reaper it can actually own:org.testcontainers.lang === "node"— this library already writes that label on everything it creates viacreateLabels();org.testcontainers.session-idlabel on the reaper container — adopting a reaper whose session cannot be identified is precisely the step that silently broke reaping.A reaper that fails the predicate is left to the binding that owns it, and the Node run starts its own reaper instead.
Verification (red-green, per AGENTS.md)
New
reaper-discovery.test.tsexercises the extracted predicate with stub clients (no Docker needed):exportadded): 2 failed / 1 passed — the foreign-reaper fixture was adopted and the anonymous-reaper fixture triggered the random-id mint.Additionally
reaper-discovery.docker.test.tsadds a Docker-gated integration case (starts analpinecontainer labeled as a foreign binding's reaper and asserts it is not adopted); it runs in CI and skips automatically when no Docker daemon is reachable.tsc --noEmitclean, prettier/eslint clean on all touched files.reaper.test.tsunchanged and still Docker-gated as before (fails locally only due to no Docker daemon, same as onmain).Notes
--engine-strict=falsebecause the dev dependencynpm-check-updates@23.0.0demands node^24.15.0while the repo itself requires>= 22.22— no repository files were changed for this.
