Hey there,
we are confronted with this on a daily basis and we are currently looking for the best solution for us. Right now we are trying out to use Fiddler as a proxy with it's AutoResponder feature which allows us to use any rest client library and implement down to the request. Might do a quick write up later.
That looks like a nice alternative. I tend to look for simpler solutions (that explains why I've used json-server).
After writing the article I remembered a better way to mock http requests without depending on axios, that is to basically to mock XMLHttpRequest. This way the application wouldn't know about it and it would not be bounded to axios interceptors.
Would love to read what you're writing on your solution
What do you mean mock XMLHttpRequest? Can you provide some more context? Like using this library npmjs.com/package/mock-xmlhttprequest for example?
Yes, that would be one option. Either that or something like PretenderJS does (github.com/pretenderjs/pretender/b...)
I have been using Mocklets for a year now, and its been great. Initially I used postman, but with mocklets you can link multiple responses in single API and switch between them just by a button click, which really helps in edge case testing.
Hmmm... I tend to mock APIs by using a tool called Postman There's a free version that offers that flexibility to build your frontend.
