WireMock Mock Server
Manage the WireMock mock server that serves API responses for UI tests and E2E verification.
Requires Java (brew install openjdk if missing).
Start
./API-Mocks/scripts/start.sh 8282 &
sleep 3
Verify it's running:
curl -s http://localhost:8282/__admin/ > /dev/null && echo "WireMock running on port 8282" || echo "WireMock failed to start"
If Java is not installed, report the prerequisite and stop.
Stop
./API-Mocks/scripts/stop.sh 8282
Uses WireMock's graceful shutdown endpoint. Falls back to kill-by-port if the shutdown endpoint is unreachable:
kill $(lsof -ti:8282) 2>/dev/null
