Remarks

• To check behavior of the mock with browsers, we can set an breakpoint in the test class to prevent shutdown of the mock HTTP server.
  • I have checked that stub urls are working as I expected with firebug.
• WireMock dependency brings many its dependencies, but I guess that are not necessary because it is classified as standalone, so I just add exclusions and it is working without any problems anyway.
