Simulating connection timeout

[Andrew Barchuk]

Hi,

It seems that in WireMock 1.x existed ways to simulate connection
timeout.
addRequestProcessingDelay
(http://one.wiremock.org/simulating-faults.html) and
addDelayBeforeProcessingRequest
(http://stackoverflow.com/a/32273162/2057275).
They are no longer available in the newer versions however. Are there
any
alternatives available to accomplish the same thing in WireMock 2.x?

Thanks in advance

That feature never really worked properly in 1.x, which is why it got removed. I haven't found a reliable way to do it yet unfortunately. Java's Socket implementation abstracts too much control away.

I tend to use local firewall rules to test these kinds of conditions when I need to now, or use https://github.com/tomakehurst/saboteur if I want to automate.
