Why Use Mock Servers

Discover how Beeceptor empowers your development workflow
with API Mock Server, Local Tunnel and HTTP Proxy toolset.

Parallel Development

Frontend developers can work independent of the backend team, even before the actual API is implemented or deployed.

Faster Feedback

Let developers iterate and catch issues before implementation. Early detection saves you the high cost of fixing bugs down the road.

Testing Early & Often

Test the code early in the development cycle and also test edge cases, failures, higher latencies without affecting the actual API or test data setup.

Remove Impediments With App Development

Building web or mobile apps should be a seamless journey, but too often, developers encounter roadblocks that slow them down.

Unstable integration environment: There can be frequent deployments to the integration environment by others, causing disruptions. Beeceptor lets you record API responses once and mock them for your development.
Authentication Hurdles: With Beeceptor, you can host API contracts and start integrating with mock API payloads, all while bypassing authentication complexities.
Rate Limiting: If an API is down because of rate limit, switch to a mocked version and integrate faster without any productivity loss.
CORS Complexities: Beeceptor enables all origins for CORS, liberating you from these complexities temporarily. Just wrap an API endpoint with Beeceptor proxy and unblock your integration.
Test Data and Format Inconsistencies: Beeceptor's mock API is your lifesaver. Keep development smooth until the backend is fixed and say goodbye to integration hiccups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your front-end teams stuck waiting for APIs that are still being developed? How can you jumpstart your project?

Every second counts! Accelerate your workflow with Beeceptor. Swiftly create mock APIs and instantly unblock your front-end development teams. Beeceptor's intuitive, no-code solution lets you deploy a mock server instantly.

Struggling with unreliable integration tests and unstable third-party services?

Transform your testing approach with Beeceptor's service virtualization. The record-and-mock feature allows you to craft test doubles or mocked versions of services, minimizing dependencies and enabling isolated testing.

Cut short the lengthy process of deployment roundtrips of API services during frontend integrations. Use local tunnels.

The traditional approach of code review, continuous integration (CI), and deployment can significantly delay the availability of APIs for frontend developers. With Beeceptor's local tunnel front end teams can integrate with the backend developer's box bypassing a full deployment cycle. This is a rapid connector between backend and frontend development teams.

Looking to cut development costs? How does Beeceptor contribute to this?

Beeceptor is your key to a more economical development process:

Eliminate impediments by allowing developers to integrate with APIs still in development, rather than waiting idly.
Speed up your testing phase with faster integration tests, independent of external service availability, enhancing accuracy.
Cut down on the costs associated with sandbox environments by using Beeceptor to mock API calls and data.
Fixing a bug during the design phase is almost six times less expensive – than during later stages of implementation. Validate your API design and contracts early.

Build in-house solutions or buy, what should I consider?

Prioritize your core business objectives and let Beeceptor streamline your development workflow. As a hosted, no-code solution for service virtualization, Beeceptor eliminates the complexities of in-house development.

Faster onboarding with no downloads or dependencies.
Comprehensive security measures, audit capabilities, and user management.
Beeceptor is SOC2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified.
