Mockaton

An HTTP mock server for simulating APIs with minimal setup — ideal for testing difficult to reproduce backend states.

NPM Version Test codecov

Overview

With Mockaton, you don’t need to write code for wiring up your mocks. Instead, a given directory is scanned for filenames following a convention similar to the URLs.

For example, for /api/company/123, the filename could be:

my-mocks-dir/api/company/[id].GET.200.json
