Add Instana tracing support for Wiremock

As explained in TS019691255 Instana does not support tracing for Wiremock-based applications. Wiremock is however one of the most popular testing tool for mocking and testing APIs with broad adoption and very high usage. For us it would be very helpful if Instana properly supported tracing in Wiremock applications.

    Hello,

    Thank you for taking the time to share this request with IBM.

    At this time, support for tracing WireMock-based applications is not planned for the release currently under development. However, we recognize the value of this capability, especially for customers using WireMock in testing, integration, or pre-production environments to validate API interactions and trace continuity.

    We will track this request under future consideration. If we see broader customer demand or additional community feedback through voting and related use cases, IBM may evaluate adding support for WireMock tracing in a future roadmap cycle.

    We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, recommendations, and ideas.

    If you have any additional feedback, use cases, or technical details about how WireMock is being used in your environment, please feel free to reply to this message so we can continue the conversation.
