What is API Mocking?

API mocking is a technique used to simulate the behavior of an API, allowing developers to create and test applications against a virtual version of an external service. This practice facilitates parallel development, enabling frontend teams to progress without waiting for the backend APIs to be fully developed. Adopting API mocking can lead to a notable decrease in integration bugs and an acceleration of continuous integration (CI) pipelines.
