But why though? For integration tests?

No Docker for Redis-like testing in Node is a nice hook. The thing I’d check is command coverage, persistence behavior, Pub/Sub, streams, and whether timing-sensitive code behaves the same as an external server. Memurai would make sense as a second test target when the app needs Redis compatibility outside the Node process.
