Dev Services Overview
What Are Dev Services?
Quarkus supports the automatic provisioning of unconfigured services in development and test mode. We refer to this capability as Dev Services. If you include an extension and don’t configure it then Quarkus will automatically start the relevant service (usually using Testcontainers behind the scenes) and wire up your application to use this service.
For a tutorial showing how to get started writing an application with persistence and Dev Services, see Your Second Quarkus Application.
Using Dev Services
Dev Services are designed to be frictionless, so they will be automatically started any time you include an extension which supports Dev Services, as long as you don’t configure a connection to an external service.
| In order to use most Dev Services you will need a working container environment (remote environments are supported). If you don’t have a container environment, such as Docker or Podman, installed you will need to configure your services normally. |
The default startup timeout for Dev Services is 60s, if this is not enough you can increase it with the quarkus.devservices.timeout property.
To configure a production service but continue to use Dev Services in development and test modes, use configuration profiles.
For example,
# configure your datasource
%prod.quarkus.datasource.db-kind = postgresql
%prod.quarkus.datasource.username = prod-admin
%prod.quarkus.datasource.password = super-secret
%prod.quarkus.datasource.jdbc.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mydatabaseDisabling Dev Services
All this functionality is part of the Quarkus deployment modules, so does not affect the production application in any
way. If you want to disable all Dev Services you can use the quarkus.devservices.enabled=false config property, although
in most cases this is not necessary as simply configuring the service will result in the Dev Service being disabled automatically.
Platform Dev Services
This section lists all the Dev Services available in the Quarkus Platform.
AMQP
The AMQP Dev Service will be enabled when the quarkus-messaging-amqp extension is present in your application, and
the broker address has not been explicitly configured. More information can be found in the
AMQP Dev Services Guide.

Databases
The database Dev Services will be enabled when a reactive or JDBC datasource extension is present in the application, and the database URL has not been configured. More information can be found in the Databases Dev Services Guide.
Quarkus provides Dev Services for all databases it supports. Most of these are run in a container, except H2 and Derby which are run in-process. Dev Services are supported for both JDBC and reactive drivers.
Those relational databases that are running in a container are started using Testcontainers and support "reusable instances";
this implies that if you add the property testcontainers.reuse.enable=true in your Testcontainers configuration file,
a property file named .testcontainers.properties in your user home, then the databases will not be stopped aggressively
after each run, and can be reused.
N.B. if you opt in for this feature, Quarkus will not reset the state of the database between runs unless you explicitly configure it to.

Indicates if the container managed by Quarkus Dev Services is shared. When shared, Quarkus looks for running containers using label-based service discovery.

Dev Services beyond the Quarkus Platform
Many Quarkiverse extensions which are not in the Quarkus Platform also offer Dev Services.
Here are some highlights.
Neo4j
The Neo4j Dev Service will be enabled when the quarkus-neo4j extension is present in your application, and
the server address has not been explicitly configured. More information can be found in the
Neo4j Guide.
WireMock
The WireMock extension starts WireMock as a Dev Service. It is a test-focussed extension, designed to run in dev and test mode only. More information can be found in the WireMock Guide.
Microcks
The Microcks Quarkus extension includes a Microcks Dev Service. The Dev Service manages mocks for dependencies and contract-testing your API endpoints. See the extension README.md for more information.
