 This provides one example of how a WireMock service can be packaged for deployment.
 
-> For many testing needs WireMock can be used __inline__ directly from your test code, which is even more convenient than using a deployed instance. Whether you use a deployed app, a standalone instance running locally, or start an instance of wiremock directly from your code is a matter of choosing the best design for the purpose at hand. 
+> For many testing needs WireMock can be used __inline__ directly from your test code. Inline use is often more convenient, and the mock code can be kept closer to the test code than when using a deployed instance. Deciding whether to use a deployed instance, a standalone instance running locally, or start an instance of wiremock directly from your code is a matter of choosing the best test design for the purpose at hand. A deployed mock might only make sense for tests run against a deployed system or service.

+> **Threat modelling**: This template is a minimal functional demonstration of wiremock as a tool. Features like authentication and authorisation are not demonstrated, though these can be implemented at the wiremock layer if not available at the hosting layer. You will need to conduct your own threat modelling as part of your project. Deploying the application in this template *as is* will grant unrestricted access to the mock server in a given network context.
