WireMock 2.27.0 released

[Tom Akehurst]

Hi folks,

WireMock COVID edition is now released! It's been quite a long time coming, but there's quite a lot of good stuff in there.

First and foremost, thanks to some very heavy lifting from Rob Elliot, HTTPS browser (forward) proxying is now possible. Thanks Rob!

See here for details: http://localhost:4000/docs/proxying/#browser-proxying-of-https

Other changes:

• Added support for matching on hostname, port and scheme, enabling stubbing of multiple domains in one WireMock instance while forward proxying.
• Significantly improved the performance of the unmatched request diff reporter (10 - 30x according to my cursory tests)
• Added verify with count matching strategy to the instance DSL - thanks Lukas Gemela
• Added a config toggle for stub CORS headers
• Changed the XPath matching approach so that namespaced XML elements can be matched by their local names (without resorting to the local-name() function).
• Added support for suppressing specific match operations within equalToXml, to fine-tune how XML documents are matched.
• Deprecated request.requestLine in the template model and moved all of its methods up to request (because I found repeatedly typing requestLine pretty irritating)
• Made fetching of headers in response templates case-insensitive - thanks Torben Krieger
• Made the xPath Handlebars helper return a list of nodes rather than a string, so that results can be iterated over with {{#each}}
• Added support for subclassing ResponseDefinition without breaking copy() - thanks Wojtek Bulaty
• Better diff reporting - includes scenario state mismatch and XPath/JSONPath sub-match diff.
• Fixed an issue where, in the presence of request filters, the original (rather than modified) request was being used to generate diff reports.
• Added {{pickRandom ...}} Handlebars helper to randomly select an item from a list.
• Added ability to set both the keystore and key manager passwords (previously you could only set the key manager, but misleadingly this was labelled as keystore password)
• Added ability to set the keystore type and trust store type from the CLI.
