Analyst Guide: Modern API Mocking
An Intellyx Analyst Guide for WireMock Cloud
APIs were supposed to make integration and development simpler, but in today’s highly distributed and fast-changing software architectures, developers are constantly constrained by a lack of ready API test and development environments, provisioning delays, inadequate documentation, and costly infrastructure.
This extensive analyst guide highlights how mock APIs can improve developer productivity and ensure a great API experience for API consumers, whether internal or external.
In this guide:
- How to use API Mocking to optimize Dev & Test
- Mocking, simulating and documenting APIs for easier onboarding
- Why an API-first development approach needs prototype-first thinking
- The sweet future of API mocking: pollinating development practice
