Creating mocks
Simple mock
Create json file in mocks folder
"method": "post" "uri": "/a/b" "status": 403 "response": "answer": "ok" "headers": "name": "Myheader" "value": "Myvalue" "name": "Anything-else" "value": "More values" "cookies": "name": "mycookie" "value": "something"
Advanced mock
You can create your own mock function using NodeJS and express framework.
Mock function is a Express middleware, which will receive params:
req
- object with request information
res
- object with response
next
- function, which must be called if you wish to pass request to other middlewares.
Just put your module to mocks directory.
Example module:
var express = ;var router = express; router ; moduleexports = router;
