WireMock 4.0 beta.42 can record every request header, still in beta.

api mockingjavatestingbetarecording
◆Current state
WireMock is the standard Java tool for mocking HTTP APIs, and its 4.0 line is still in beta. After a quiet month, beta.42 and beta.43 arrived on November 12 and 13: recording can now capture all request headers with exclusions, a new extension point lets code react to served messages, and the rest is Dependabot bumps.
◆Where it's heading
The 4.0 betas are still mostly fixes and dependency updates, with small additions to recording and message channels. Nothing signals a final release yet.
◆Prediction
Expect more numbered betas with recording and message-channel fixes; when 4.0 goes final is not visible from these entries.

    4.0 beta.41: trust-store, matcher and resetAll fixes

    Bug fixes: the HTTPS trust-store type is honored, a case-insensitive matcher no longer crashes on short values, and resetAll() now clears message stubs and the journal. The rest is dependency bumps.

    4.0 beta.40: journal stores enforce maxEntries (breaking)

    Request and message journal stores now enforce maxEntries directly. That's a breaking change for custom store implementers and fixes memory growth under load. Multipart matching also stops depending on order.
