03 / ORIGINAL ISSUE TEXT
testcontainers/testcontainers-python #874 · read the original issue
It seems that the 4.13 release introduced a new deprecation warning around the `@wait_container_is_ready` decorator.
The deprecation warning itself works as expected and the description is comprehensive.
There is a problem however: importing `DockerContainer` will cause the deprecation warning to appear with the following stack trace:
```
conftest.py:6: in <module>
from testcontainers.core.container import DockerContainer
project/venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/testcontainers/core/container.py:21: in <module>
from testcontainers.core.wait_strategies import LogMessageWaitStrategy
project/venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/testcontainers/core/wait_strategies.py:41: in <module>
from .waiting_utils import WaitStrategy, WaitStrategyTarget
project/venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/testcontainers/core/waiting_utils.py:178: in <module>
@wait_container_is_ready()
project/venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/testcontainers/core/waiting_utils.py:117: in wait_container_is_ready
warnings.warn(
E DeprecationWarning: The @wait_container_is_ready decorator is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use structured wait strategies instead: container.waiting_for(HttpWaitStrategy(8080).for_status_code(200)) or container.waiting_for(LogMessageWaitStrategy('ready'))
```
Our project is configured to treat warnings as errors. As far as I am aware, there is currently nothing we can do on the consumer side to prevent this issues.
As a side note, the documentation still mentions the `wait_for_logs` method:

```python
from testcontainers.core.container import DockerContainer
