%% How to run it locally (all commands are run in $PROJ_ROOT dir):
%%   A: run ct on host
%%     1. Start all deps services
%%       ```bash
%%       sudo docker compose -f .ci/docker-compose-file/docker-compose.yaml \
%%                           -f .ci/docker-compose-file/docker-compose-sqlserver.yaml \
%%                           -f .ci/docker-compose-file/docker-compose-toxiproxy.yaml \
%%                           up --build
%%       ```
%%
%%     2. Run use cases with special environment variables
%%       11433 is toxiproxy exported port.
%%       Local:
%%       ```bash
%%       SQLSERVER_HOST=toxiproxy SQLSERVER_PORT=11433 \
%%           PROXY_HOST=toxiproxy PROXY_PORT=1433 \
%%           ./rebar3 as test ct -c -v --readable true --name ct@127.0.0.1 \
%%                               --suite apps/emqx_bridge_sqlserver/test/emqx_bridge_sqlserver_SUITE.erl
%%       ```
%%
%%   B: run ct in docker container
%%     run script:
%%     ```bash
%%     ./scripts/ct/run.sh --ci --app apps/emqx_bridge_sqlserver/ -- \
%%                         --name 'test@127.0.0.1' -c -v --readable true \
