Pact JVM
JVM version of Pact. Enables consumer driven contract testing, providing a mock service and DSL for the consumer project, and interaction playback and verification for the service provider project. (by pact-foundation)
MockServer
MockServer enables easy mocking of any system you integrate with via HTTP or HTTPS with clients written in Java, JavaScript and Ruby. MockServer also includes a proxy that introspects all proxied traffic including encrypted SSL traffic and supports Port Forwarding, Web Proxying (i.e. HTTP proxy), HTTPS Tunneling Proxying (using HTTP CONNECT) and SOCKS Proxying (i.e. dynamic port forwarding).

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

Does anyone know how to do an integration test on microservices build with asp core?
Pact.Net documentation: https://docs.pact.io/ Mountebank documentation: http://www.mbtest.org/ The Microsoft.AspNetCore.TestHost package on GitHub: https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore/tree/main/src/Testing/Microsoft.AspNetCore.TestHost

Integration testing best practices for API servers...
There's also https://docs.pact.io/ but I haven't had time yet to really look into it but probably someone else can tell something about it.

Operation Pact or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Contract Testing
Contract tests assert that inter-application messages conform to a shared understanding documented in a contract. Without contract testing, the only way to ensure that applications will work correctly together is by using expensive and brittle integration tests.

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.

I have difficulties in unit testing
I have contract tests (https://docs.pact.io/) to ensure the integration works.

Please recommend a good API Mocking tool
The open-source examples are mockoon, mock-server.com, etc.

Testing with MockServer
I've just found out MockServer and it looks awesome 🤩 so I wanted to check it out repeating the steps of my previous demo WireMock Testing which (as you can expect) uses WireMock, another fantastic tool to mock APIs.

How to unit test successful Oauth requests of 3rd party API's?
I tend to use MockServer. With MockServer you can define inputs, so you can say that the request should look like this with that URL, etc etc. That way you can verify that the request looks okay.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Pact JVM and MockServer you can also consider the following projects:
WireMock - A tool for mocking HTTP services
REST Assured - Java DSL for easy testing of REST services
Mockito - Most popular Mocking framework for unit tests written in Java
Testcontainers - Testcontainers is a Java library that supports JUnit tests, providing lightweight, throwaway instances of common databases, Selenium web browsers, or anything else that can run in a Docker container.

Cucumber - Cucumber for the JVM
