☕️ Fun morning hack: @openapis.org callbacks are now supported in @microcks.io 🎉

Simulate payment services, async workflows, long-running registrations - all mocked straight from the spec.

Callback support = next-level API realism. Love it 😍

📢 I’m incredibly happy and proud of this announcement; it brings me back to how it all began almost 2 years ago, when I joined and connected with the #GSMA and CAMARA communities at MWC Barcelona 2024! 🙌

#GSMA #opensource @cncf.io @linuxfoundation.org 🚀
🚀 Big news for the Telco & API ecosystem: GSMA is now a public Microcks adopter.

GSMA has selected Microcks to power the GSMA Open Gateway API Sandbox, which exposes standardized, programmable mobile network capabilities via the CAMARA APIs.

🎭 "Mocks are unrealistic!" Possible, but you can improve by connecting them to contract testing.

When done right, mocking & contract testing are two sides of the same coin 🪙

Wouah! 🤩 This is huge! If you haven’t yet, give @microcks.io a try!
📢 From 850k to 2.5M+ downloads in a year. That’s 3× growth for Microcks container images in 2025 🚀

It shows how fast teams are adopting:
- contract-driven APIs
- smart & realistic mocking
- shift-left and developers' early stage conformance testing
