Container Platform — Docker

Evaluates Docker's Docker Compose & Local Dev across 9 scenario-based test cases, each graded against an expected-behavior rubric by an LLM judge, from Corsac's Container Platform eval coverage.

About Docker

Docker is the container platform — Docker Engine, Docker Desktop, Docker Hub registry, Docker Build Cloud for managed cloud builders, Docker Scout for image vulnerability scanning and supply-chain policy, Docker Compose for multi-container dev, and Docker Model Runner for local LLM inference. Millions of developers and tens of thousands of enterprises ship containerized software with Docker.

compose.yaml: web depends_on: [db]. App starts and crashes because Postgres isn't ready to accept connections yet.

Use long-form depends_on with condition: service_healthy and add a healthcheck to the db service (pg_isready or psql query). web waits for healthcheck pass, not just container start. Short-form depends_on only waits for container start, not readiness.

Developer wants source edits to sync into the running container without a rebuild. Currently runs 'docker compose up --build' after every change.

Add a develop.watch block: actions: sync (path: ./src, target: /app/src) and rebuild (path: ./package.json). Run 'docker compose up --watch'. Source edits stream into the container; package.json edits trigger rebuild. Per docs.docker.com/compose/how-tos/file-watch/.

compose.yaml has services: app, db, monitoring, debug-shell. Developers only want monitoring and debug-shell when troubleshooting.

Tag optional services with profiles: [monitoring] and profiles: [debug]. Default 'docker compose up' starts only services without profiles. 'docker compose --profile monitoring up' includes monitoring. Profiles compose: --profile monitoring --profile debug.
