WireMock is a simulator for HTTP-based APIs and can be used to mock an API response in case of REST services development and testing. In this article, we will focus on how WireMock can be used to mock an API response while testing REST service that you are developing in SpringBoot. In this way, you can simulate scenarios for which getting test data is time-consuming in the real world. I used it in integration testing Gateway APIs to mock API responses for the underlying services that we were using.
Including WireMock in Project as a Dependency
As mentioned by www.wiremock.org, it is currently recommended that you use the standalone JAR as a dependency with Spring Boot projects. This avoids a conflict over the Jetty version. https://goo.gl/HdZXdb #DataIntegration #ML
