Implementation Plan: Testing Framework MVP

Objective: Build a manifest-driven, reusable Java testing framework to support microservices across multiple teams.

1. Project Bootstrapping. Set up repository layout, Create folder structure and initial files (e.g. build.gradle, settings.gradle).

2. Implement a ManifestParser. Add main entry point and parse manifest file with dependency resolution.

3. Mocking & Live Service Integration. Integrate WireMockLauncher. Support launching services by mode: mock vs live.

4. Test Data Provisioning. Implement data loader for SQL test data (e.g seed from data/init.sql). Design group-based test data teardown strategy.

5. Contract Validation. Implement a Contract Validator scaffold, design API for schema-based request/response validation, Integrate SchemaStore and implement a fail tests when contract changes break mocks or consumers.

6. CLI Tooling & Developer UX. Add CLI tools for microservices to launch tests, Write documentation for developers.

7. Build & Distribute. Build deliverables (Jar files and scripts) and publish to internal repository.
