Why use Spring Cloud Contract?
Spring Cloud Contract works great in a polyglot environment. This project has a lot of really interesting features. Quite a few of these features definitely make Spring Cloud Contract Verifier stand out on the market of Consumer Driven Contract (CDC) tooling. The most interesting features include the following:
- 
Ability to do CDC with messaging.
 - 
Clear and easy to use, statically typed DSL.
 - 
Ability to copy-paste your current JSON file to the contract and edit only its elements.
 - 
Automatic generation of tests from the defined contract.
 - 
Stub Runner functionality: The stubs are automatically downloaded at runtime from Nexus or Artifactory.
 - 
Spring Cloud integration: No discovery service is needed for integration tests.
 - 
Ability to add support for any language & framework through Docker.
