Spring Kafka Producer Test using Schema registry

Question

I am trying to use Spring Kafka to write tests for my producer application with its embedded Kafka server.

However my application also using confluent schema registry, I am wondering whether Spring Kafka provides some embedded server for schema registry?

Or are there any better way to do Spring Kafka tests with schema registry?

Answer 1

There is no schema registry provided by Spring Kafka; it is not Apache licensed; you can, however, use an external confluent registry with the embedded kafka broker.

Spring Cloud Stream does have a simple registry docs here.

It is in the process of being moved to its own project.
