The document discusses mock servers and mocks in testing, emphasizing their role in isolating complex dependencies and simplifying unit tests. Mock servers simulate server responses and can be configured to return desired outputs based on specific inputs, making them essential for API design, development, and testing. The summary highlights that mocks are foundational for API-driven development.

Mocking APIs Collaboratively with Postman
- 1. PRESENTED BY Mock Servers Paul Logan Developer Advocate, Postman | @Scottishkilt
- 2. Mocks Objects that simulate the behaviour of other real-world objects.
- 3. Mocks in testing ! Isolate the behaviour by mocking complex dependencies. ! Eases incorporation of dependencies in unit tests. ! Define responses based on input.
- 4. Mock Servers ! Fake API that emulates a server response. ! Configurable to return your desired response without writing any code. ! Hosted by Postman.
- 5. Usage ! API Design ! API Development ! API Testing

- 9. How we use mocks
- 10. In Summary • Mock Servers help you emulate server responses. • Need a unique URL path and corresponding response body for set up. • Same endpoint can be mocked to return different response based on query parameters. • Mocks are the base for API driven development.
