If you are specifying external services through docker, your CI platform should support docker service.

Here are some examples :

* If a fixture instantiates a container on a port with docker-compose, docker will refuse to start a second fixture
* If a fixture remains up with a ``keep_mounted`` policy between 2 tests played in parallel, you risk data consistency
