sMockin is an API mocking tool used to dynamically simulate HTTP endpoints.
Featuring a rich UI and an inbuilt HTTP mock server, mocking your existing or new API model can be done quickly and without any coding or scripting.
Whether you are a developer who needs to simulate RESTFul endpoints or an engineer working with complex SOA / IoT / microservice infrastructure, sMockin can help by mimicking any services that are either unavailable or otherwise too difficult or time consuming to set up.
sMockin runs as a small web app which can be either installed locally onto a personal machine or hosted centrally and used by multiple users.
- Create dynamic API mocks to mimic real world application behaviour.
- Run sMockin centrally and create user accounts for your team.
- Import / Export mocks to share between your team & version control.
- Monitor and log traffic going to the HTTP mock server.
- A complete UI solution requiring zero coding.
- Java 8
- Maven 3
Please Note - All bash scripts were written and tested on GNU Bash version 3.2.57(1)-release. - All BAT files were were written and tested on Windows 7.

New in version 2.8

Added the ability to save Key / Value pair data which can be recalled in your mock responses.
-
Changed the syntax format used in Response Variables.
For example,
${REQ_PARAM=firstName} will now be expressed as $requestParameter(firstName)

New in version 2.7
- Introducing 'Stateful REST' mocking. Mocked endpoints using this feature, can cache and manage JSON state based on the RESTful instructions they receive, helping to mimic 'real world' data behavior.
To give it a go, simply create a new mock (e.g /pets) selecting the 'Stateful REST' type and save.
Then run the following calls to see it immediately action:
curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8001/pets
curl -i -X POST http://localhost:8001/pets -d '{ "name" : "fido", "age" : 4, "type" : "DOG" }'
curl -i -X POST http://localhost:8001/pets -d '{ "name" : "minty", "age" : 6, "type" : "CAT" }'
Your next call to GET /pets should return the following:
curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8001/pets
[
{
"name": "fido",
"age": 4,
"type": "DOG",
"id": "223af502-ae81-4274-9101-4886821ea823"
},
{
"name": "minty",
"age": 6,
"type": "CAT",
"id": "0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5"
}
]
You can proceed to GET, PUT, PATCH and DELETE your mock using the generated id...
curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8001/pets/0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5
curl -i -X PUT http://localhost:8001/pets/0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5 -d '{ "id" : "0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5", "name" : "Minty", "age" : 7, "type" : "CAT" }'
curl -i -X PATCH http://localhost:8001/pets/0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5 - d '{ "op" : "REPLACE", "path" : "/name", "value" : "Minty Mi" }'
curl -i -X DELETE http://localhost:8001/pets/0a1c837a-8cd5-4a3c-b2e8-a519933e99d5
sMockin is designed and actively maintained by MG Tech Software Ltd.
Why the name sMockin? Whilst it may sound like an old english middle ages embroidery technique, the name actually came about more in relation to a classic Jim Carey movie quote 'Smokin'. We then added the extra letter to play on the concept of software mocking and there you have it.
Yes, way too much thought went into that...
