MSW seems not to work with kafka testcontainers #1600

Prerequisites

[X] I confirm my issue is not in the opened issues
[X] I confirm the Frequently Asked Questions didn't contain the answer to my issue

Environment check

[X] I'm using the latest msw version
[X] I'm using Node.js version 14 or higher

Node.js version

18.16.0

Reproduction repository

https://github.com/ofekdeitch-oligo/msw-testcontainers-bug

Reproduction steps

run:

nvm use
npm install
npm run test

Notice that there are 2 tests running:

Without MSW
With MSW

Test (1) passes, but test (2) fails.

I've also added the method bypassRoutes that creates routes using req.passthrough(), but test (2) continues to fail.

Current behavior

When setting up an MSW server, the testcontainers library fails to create a Kafka container.

Expected behavior

MSW would bypass the requests that testcontainers relies on, so that a Kafka container would be created successfully.

Hi, @ofekdeitch-oligo. Thanks for reporting this.

From my experience, issues like these are often related to how the third-party agent (in your case the testcontainers package) constructs and performs the request. I can't count the number of times libraries go into strange tropes, sometimes even against the Node.js API, and then issues surface through libraries like MSW, which let you execute more of the request code.

I don't have the time capacity to look into this, so anybody is welcome to debug the issue and share their findings. Thank you for understanding.
