1. A method, comprising:

  • retrieving information identifying one or more service dependencies for a first service hosted by a virtual machine being instantiated in a development environment; and

    for each service dependency of the one or more service dependencies;

    identifying whether the service dependency is accessible by the first service in the development environment;

    upon determining that the service dependency is not accessible by the first service in the development environment;

    spawning an instance of the service dependency by one of;

    instantiating a virtual machine to execute the instance of the service dependency, wherein the service dependency comprises a dependency internal to the development environment, orauthenticating with a provider of the service dependency and requesting that the provider of the service dependency spawn an instance of the service dependency, wherein the service dependency comprises a dependency external to the development environment; and

    connecting the service dependency to the virtual machine hosting the first service; and

    upon determining that the service dependency is accessible by the first service in the development environment, connecting the service dependency to the virtual machine hosting the first service.
