MiniLake: a local Databricks API emulator with SQL, Delta Lake and Spark

dmux.github.io

Running integration tests against a real workspace is slow and costs money. This emulates the API locally. Has anyone tried it in CI yet? Curious how close the behaviour is for Delta edge cases.

emulators are great until you hit the one feature they don't support in prod lol
