Why should I use MockWebServer instead of WireMock?
Every time I need to mock some HTTP requests my first choice is WireMock (which is actually the default one for this I think), but today I discovered an alternative tool - MockWebServer.
What are the pros and cons of WireMock vs MockWebServer ?

Basically MockWebServer
was invented to run smoothly on Android devices. There were several installation problems WireMock
on Android and that's why it was invented MockWebServer
.
If you are mocking your backend then I recommend WireMock
as it is more feature rich.
There is a good article on the topic here:
