How can I effectively handle errors in mock APIs?

You can handle errors in mock APIs by simulating different error responses, like 404 or 500 status codes.

Can you give me an example of how to simulate a 404 error?

Sure! You can set up your mock API to return a 404 status code when a specific endpoint is hit, like /not-found.

What about handling validation errors?

For validation errors, you can return a 400 status code along with a message detailing what went wrong.

Is there a way to test these error responses?

Yes, you can use tools like Postman or automated testing frameworks to verify that your mock API responds correctly to errors.
