Consumer driven development with Spring cloud contract

on YouTube ↗17m

" summary

Shows how Spring Cloud Contract turns consumer-written contracts into executable tests that verify providers by generating acceptance tests run during the producer build. Demonstrates REST and message support, uses WireMock stubs for offline provider simulation, produces JUnit tests via Maven/Gradle plugins, and covers positive and negative scenarios. Shows practical details: contracts live with build, tests run on random port selection during CI, and stubs let consumers exercise APIs before providers implement them.
