I think you are talking about Testcontainers, although it only matches the second part of the comment (can manage different external moving parts in containers for integration tests): https://www.testcontainers.org/

I'd be interested in seeing an embedded Postgres library; I only see H2 and maybe Derby being used for tests and "getting to know the ropes" use cases, eg. a default install.

Pretty sure they are talking about https://github.com/zonkyio/embedded-postgres-binaries. It's not exactly embedded postgresql since it still runs the full postgresql in a separate process but it is close enough for most purposes.

Cool, thank you!
