I want to trigger a HRV-measurement on my Apple Watch 4 programmatically. Is there a way to start the breath-app from my own app in background to trigger the HRV measurement? Or is it possible to trigger a HRV-measurement directly?
If not is there even an alternative to measure stress in nearly realtime programmatically on my Apple Watch 4 ?
Please provide me some Code examples if you know an answer.
Thank you in advance!

There is no API to trigger an HRV measurement on Apple Watch. You should file a radar with Apple to request one.

It is not possible to launch the Breathe app programmatically, but heart rate variability is accessible from HealthKit.
