Software Engineering DailyCreating Mock APIs with Tom AkehurstAPI mocking is a technique used to simulate the behavior of an API without actually connecting to the real API. It is useful for various reasons, including testing, isolation, development, and cost reduction. By using API mocking, developers can test their code without relying on the availability of the real API, isolate the code being tested from the behavior of the API, work on their code even when the API is not yet available, and reduce the number of requests they make to the real API, thus saving money.WireMock is a flexible tool for building mock...2023-02-2251 min
