Managing APIs and Contracts in a Microservices World Using Spring Cloud Contract

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

Shows how Spring Cloud Contract uses Groovy DSL contracts stored in source control to produce generated stubs (WireMock) and on‑the‑fly generated tests for producers, exchanged via a Maven stub repository and a stub runner. Demo builds a login service: consumer tests run green with stubs, a password rule change updates the contract, server unit tests fail then pass after a small code fix, and integration failures drop dramatically when contracts drive both sides.
