Mockambo

API Mocking, recording and Validation

Mockambo is an API mocking server that packs a lot of useful features to:

• generate mocked APIs on the fly based on OpenAPI specifications without additional configuration
• Validate requests and responses against the contract
• Fake data coherently
• Script the behavior of the mocks using JavaScript
• Load dynamic templates to make the mocks even more alive
• Work as a reverse proxy request/response recorder and playback

All this by simply altering the OpenAPI specification, adding the x-mockambo extension sections where necessary.

Mockambo is a powerful Swiss Army knife for the following activities:

• Design first API development
• 3rd party API exploration and client development
• Service isolation during development and testing
• Contract testing of both clients and servers
• Offline development
• CI/CD pipeline testing
