Running tests against a different repository (CI/CD)
API Contract Testing might be worth exploring. Gives you the ability to run it quickly locally or in CI/CD. A centralized way to validate if your changes broke another service might also be interesting. That series of videos from the same team is gold: https://docs.pact.io

Operation Pact or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Contract Testing

How to Share API Changes with Your Team
If you are updating your API based on user feedback, you can work with your team or stakeholders to build an API contract describing how your API should function. You can use JSON schemas to document your API’s endpoint response codes and set up the contract. The contract must be accepted by all parties. Then, any changes made to the API must pass the contract test before being approved. Contract testing can be automated and incorporated into your CI/CD pipeline. Contract testing tools include Pact and Spring Cloud Contract.
