Dynamically controlled swagger / openapi mock server for testing purposes

I'm looking for a project/tool that is able to get swagger / openapi specifications file as a parameter and generate a mock server that can be controlled programmatically via a REST API interface.

For example - if my API contains the following endpoint: "POST /v1/create" and I have a swagger specs that describe that API, I would like my mock server to be executed in a way similar to:

mock-server -f swagger.yaml -p 8080

While the server runs, It will be possible to interact with it's own REST API (on some control interface via a different port) and change the behavior of the running swagger mock server - i.e: change response code, set response content etc'

I would like to use such mock-server as part of my system-tests suite to better verify my service behavior when interacting with other services - without the need to run those 'real' services.

I'm looking for something similar in spirit to Shopyify's ToxiProxy (https://github.com/Shopify/toxiproxy) but with the above capabilities.

Thanks!

I know I'm a bit late to the party on this one, but for future searchers, MockLab now supports auto-generation of mock APIs from an imported Swagger definition and Swaggerhub webhooks.
