Spring Cloud Contract

What you always need it confidence in pushing new features into a new application or service in a distributed system. This project provides support for Consumer Driven Contracts in Spring applications, covering a range of options for writing tests, publishing them as assets, asserting that a contract is kept by producers and consumers, for HTTP and message-based interactions.

Feature ideas:

• Move DSL and stub runner code over from Accurest
• Spring Restdocs generators
• Wiremock support for Spring Boot apps
• Wiremock mock servers using MockRestServiceServer (from Spring Test)
• POJO-based contracts (packaging DTOs and stub declarations from the producer)
• Sample messages packaged and injectable into Spring Cloud Stream consumer tests
• DiscoveryClient support so backends can be stubbed or mocked transparently (declaratively)
• Actuator endpoints that verify the state of contracts supported by the host service
• Something to make PACT easier to use in Spring Boot apps?
