So I was looking at Docker Java library.

I was clearly in the domain of Docker and I was looking for a solution and a not reference

from something called test containers.

And I was like, hmm, we develop our testing library with Docker.

Now I'm looking at something for Docker, mentioning something, something, something, test, something. So I should definitely have a look. And I had a look and I get so

excited because that library, that open source library, was doing basically the same. We don't

need to spend time recreating this thing, plus also we could start contributing.

I'm Sergei Goroff, co-founder and CEO of Atomic Jarre.

This is Code Story, a podcast bringing you interviews with tech visionaries, who share in the critical moments of what it takes to change in industry

and build and lead a team that has your back.

I'm your host, Noah Labhart, and today how Sergei Gorov started down the path

to make integrated testing simpler and easier.

All this and more on Coat Story.

Sergei Gourav grew up in a small city of only 100,000 citizens, which is huge compared to some cities.

He grew up in Siberia in the

cold part of the country. His personal record for how cold it was during his time there was

favorite game as well. The cold weather was partially the reason he got into tech, because he

could do it at home indoors. But other than that, he was a regular kid who liked to skateboard and play guitar in his band.

Through a chance discovery in Docker's ecosystem, Sergey discovered an open-source test container library
