Nock: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Nock is a powerful HTTP mocking and expectations library for Node.js. It allows you to simulate HTTP requests and responses, making it ideal for testing and mocking API interactions in your applications. With Nock, you can define custom HTTP endpoints, intercept requests, and set up expectations for outgoing requests, enabling you to test your code in isolation.
Compared to other mocking libraries like Sinon.js or Mockttp, Nock provides a more specialized and focused solution specifically tailored for HTTP mocking. Its ease of use and robust functionality make it a popular choice among developers for testing HTTP-dependent code.
