Node.js mock server running live, interactive mocks in place of real APIs. It makes able to define many different responses for a same route, so, you can change the whole mocked API behavior by simply changing the response of one or many routes while the server is running.
Define your mocked API routes in YAML, JSON, JavaScript or TypeScript files. Mocks Server loads them automatically and watches for changes. Defining routes using any of the available APIs is also possible.
Routes can be defined in many ways, from plain objects to plain text and even Express middlewares, and they can act in different ways also, from sending a response to proxy the request to another host.
Configure the server simply modifying the configuration file at the root folder of your project, or use command line arguments, or even environment variables.
For changing options while it is running, you can also use any of the available integrations tools that enable live interactions with Mocks Server.
Providing a Javascript API, an interactive command line interface and a REST API for changing the responses of the mocked API while it is running, it is easy to use both for development and testing. Tools providing integrations with other ecosystems are also available, such as Cypress commands.
