Mocking APIs

Overview

Generate mock API servers from OpenAPI specifications that return realistic, schema-compliant response data for development and testing. Support dynamic response generation with Faker.js data, configurable latency simulation, stateful CRUD behavior, and request recording for contract testing validation.

Prerequisites

• OpenAPI 3.0+ specification file with response schema definitions
• Mock server runtime: Prism (Stoplight), json-server, MSW (Mock Service Worker), or WireMock
• Faker.js or equivalent for realistic test data generation
• Docker for containerized mock server deployment (optional but recommended)
• Frontend or consumer application needing API stubs for parallel development
