WireMock.Net is a flexible .NET library for stubbing and mocking HTTP responses with advanced request matching and response templating, based on the Java WireMock project. It can be embedded in unit/integration tests or run standalone as a process, Windows service, Azure/IIS host, or Docker container.

Use cases

• mock external HTTP APIs in .NET unit tests
• stub REST endpoints with URL, header, cookie and body matching
• record and replay HTTP traffic via proxying
• simulate stateful API behavior in integration tests
• mock gRPC and GraphQL services
• run a standalone mock server in Docker for CI/CD
• template dynamic responses with Handlebars
• inject faults for chaos engineering tests

When to choose

• you're building .NET/C# applications and need HTTP mocking in tests
• you want a WireMock-compatible mock server on the .NET platform
• you need advanced request matching, response templating, or proxy record/playback
• you need gRPC, GraphQL, or OpenAPI-aware mocking

When to avoid

• you're not on the .NET platform (use the original Java WireMock or a language-native alternative)
• you only need simple HTTP fakes without matching or templating features
• you need mocking for non-HTTP protocols
