The sample indicator files has been removed from the container, because of the performance reasons (they're all compiling over 10 seconds for each run).

However you can try the following test instead:

docker run ea31337/ea-tester run_backtest -e TestEnvelopes -y 2019 -v -t

Or you can specify a custom EA URL, e.g.

docker run ea31337/ea-tester run_backtest -e https://github.com/EA31337/EA31337/releases/download/v1.079/EA31337-Lite-v1.079.ex4 -v

Or:

docker run ea31337/ea-tester:EURUSD-2019-DS run_backtest -v -e https://github.com/EA31337/EA31337/releases/download/v1.079/EA31337-Lite-v1.079.ex4

I've updated the docs.

Fantastic. That worked.
