A DIY LocalStack for Google APIs with WireMock and TestContainers
Discover how to build your own, offline "LocalStack" for Google APIs using WireMock
and TestContainers. In this post, I will show you how to set up a two-purpose
mocking strategy. By writing your JSON mock responses just once, you can reuse them
to power automated integration tests and spin up a standalone mock server for
local (UI) development. No more production data and sharing of google keys between
developers, no more 403 User Rate Limit Exceeded.
