Overview

Real production failures span layers:

• HTTP layer: Stripe returns 500; webhook payload malformed; third-party times out.
• TCP layer: Connection reset; high latency; packet loss.

This skill builds a workflow that chains WireMock + Toxiproxy into one orchestrated test scenario - closer to production reality.
