    (Shameless plug:)

    Here's the same thing as a docker container you can just keep around which auto-destroys the databases after a set time: https://github.com/ClockworkConsulting/tempgres-server

    A docker container is on dockerhub as 'cwconsult/tempgres:v2.1.1' (I think I messed up the last publishing and 'latest' doesn't point to that. I should really fix that tag.)

    A few nice things about this one is that:

    - You don't even need a local PostgreSQL

    - You can keep one somewhere in your LAN and never have to worry about it again.

    - It integrates trivially with GitLab CI where you just use it as a service inside the build.

    - Integration super-simple... simple enough to use even in e.g. shell scripts.

    - No need to worry about tear-down
