Announcing API Mocha
2020, Sep 27
I’m excited to announce the availability of API Mocha, a free online web service for mocking Application Programmable Interface (API) responses.
API Mocha is enables software developers and system integrators to:
- Simulate APIs for the purpose of software development/testing
- Create customizable responses to API calls including data, headers, status codes and delay
- Easily inspect data sent by web hooks
- Quickly test changes to the behaviour/response/design of an API
- Avoiding delay whilst waiting for an API to be developed by another team
Please visit the website at https://apimocha.com and try it out!
How it works
It’s really simple and fast, here’s what to do:
- Go to the API Mocha home page and create an endpoint with a name such as ‘my cool project’
- After you create an endpoint you’ll be redirected to a page where you can view API requests
- Send an API request to the endpoint and you’ll see it magically appear on the page
- Click the Edit button and define how you’d like API Mocha to respond to future requests with the same HTTP method and URL
- Make another API request and you’ll see the mocked response. Awesome right!
