How to run test Containers with spring boot and spock - spring

Question

I want to use test container with spock on my spring boot application.
these are my dependencies :
dependencies {
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-redis')
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web')
compile 'org.testcontainers:spock:1.8.3'
runtime('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools')
compile 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.4.15'
compileOnly('org.projectlombok:lombok')
compile 'org.testcontainers:testcontainers:1.8.3'
testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
testCompile "org.spockframework:spock-core:1.1-groovy-2.4-rc-4"
testCompile "org.spockframework:spock-spring:1.1-groovy-2.4-rc-4"
testCompile 'com.github.testcontainers:testcontainers-spock:-SNAPSHOT'
}
I have initialized my test like below :
#SpringBootTest
#Testcontainers
class ProductRedisRepositoryTest extends Specification {
#Autowired
ProductRedisRepository productRedisRepository
#Autowired
TestComponent testComponent
static Consumer<CreateContainerCmd> cmd = { -> e.withPortBindings(new PortBinding(Ports.Binding.bindPort(6379), new ExposedPort(6379)))}
#Shared
public static GenericContainer redis =
new GenericContainer("redis:3.0.2")
//.withExposedPorts(6379)
.withCreateContainerCmdModifier(cmd)
def "check redis repository save and get"(){
given:
Product product = Product.builder()
.brand("brand")
.id("id")
.model("model")
.name( "name")
.build()
when:
productRedisRepository.save(product)
Product persistProduct = productRedisRepository.find("id")
then:
persistProduct.getName() == product.getName()
}
}
But it doesn't initiate redis container when I run test.
What is my mistake. How can I do that.
My springBootVersion = '2.0.4.RELEASE' and I am using Intelij.
This is the log output : LOG

Please remove the static keyword at your #Shared GenericContainer field.
Static fields won't be annotated with #FieldMetadata by the Spock Framework, hence they won't be considered as part of the spec's fields.
Testcontainers-Spock relies on those fields to recognise GenericContainers.
If you need the static modifier though, you can work around the issue like this:
...
public static GenericContainer staticRedis =
new GenericContainer("redis:3.0.2")
//.withExposedPorts(6379)
.withCreateContainerCmdModifier(cmd)
#Shared
public GenericContainer redis = staticRedis
...
