Managing service container dependency is provided. A notification that a first service container is running on a host environment is received. It is determined whether the first service container is dependent on a second service container being up and running on the host environment. In response to determining that the first service container is dependent on a second service container being up and running on the host environment, it is determined whether the second service container is running on the host environment. In response to determining that the second service container is not running on the host environment, service requests from the first service container to the second service container are responded to using stub data that corresponds to the second service container.

Breaking dependence of distributed service containers

Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation comprising non-blocking runtime debugging of an application executing in a single threaded server environment by obtaining a first request from a head of a request queue, processing the first request based on server application code under debugging, triggering, in response to the first request, a debugging procedure, pausing processing of the first request based on the debugging procedure, tagging the first request with an indication that the first request is in debugging, placing the first request back on the request queue in a position behind the head of the queue, storing debug information related to the first request, and executing at least a second request from the request queue while processing of the first request is paused.

Enabling non-blocking runtime application debugging for a single threaded server environment

A method for testing a composite service is provided. The method may include installing a first debug probe on a first service. The method may include installing a second debug probe on a second service. The method may include executing the composite service, whereby the composite service comprises the first service and the second service. The method may include receiving a first service interaction log and a second service interaction log, whereby the first interaction log records a first plurality of I/O, and whereby the second interaction log records a second plurality of I/O. The method may include generating a global scheduling script based on the first service interaction log and the second interaction log. The method may include sending the first plurality of I/O to the first debug probe and the second plurality of I/O to the second debug probe based on the global scheduling script.
