Use Cases
See how Mocklantis accelerates development across different roles and scenarios
🧩
Microservices Development
Test service interactions without deploying entire architecture
Common Scenarios:
- Create a Loosely Coupled environment for your microservices
- Manage all your dependencies from a single mock platform
- Test service-to-service communication locally
- Mock downstream services to isolate testing
- Simulate service failures and circuit breaker scenarios
👨💻
Frontend Development
Build and test UI components without waiting for backend APIs
Common Scenarios:
- Start UI development before backend APIs are ready
- Generate realistic test data with 14 random variable types
- Test loading states, error scenarios, and edge cases
- Demo features to stakeholders with realistic data
- Develop faster without backend dependencies
🧪
Quality Assurance
Test applications thoroughly with controlled, reproducible scenarios
Common Scenarios:
- Simulate error responses and edge cases reliably
- Monitor all requests in real-time with live streaming logs
- Test rate limiting and timeout handling
- Validate error handling without breaking production
- Test WebSocket reconnection and streaming logic
🏗️
API Design & Prototyping
Design, prototype, and validate API contracts before implementation
Common Scenarios:
- Prototype API endpoints quickly for stakeholder review
- Update mock responses instantly without server restart
- Validate API design with frontend team early
- Test different response structures before committing
- Iterate on API contracts without backend changes
🔧
Integration Testing
Test integrations with third-party APIs in a controlled environment
Common Scenarios:
- Use proxy mode to seamlessly mix mocked and real endpoints
- Mock third-party APIs for consistent test results
- Test webhook integrations locally
- Simulate API versioning and deprecation scenarios
- Validate error recovery mechanisms
📚
Training & Education
