The getProperties() method overrides micronaut.http.services.photosapi.url to point at the WireMock endpoint, so the application talks to WireMock instead of the real photo service. shouldGetAlbumById() configures a mock response for /albums/{albumId}/photos, sends a request to the application's /api/albums/{albumId} endpoint, and verifies the response body. shouldReturnServerErrorWhenPhotoServiceCallFailed() configures WireMock to return a 500 status and verifies the application propagates that error.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
