docker:start

docker:start

Maven Goal for starting a container. This goal has various configuration parameters which influence its behaviour. This goal is best attached to the pre-integration-test phase of the Maven lifecycle, so that containers are started before the integration test runs.

If multiple containers are required they should be attached individually to the lifecycle, each with their own configuration. Common configuration options then should go into the main configuration section. Creates and starts a docker container.
