How can I mock APIs in Vue.js for advanced testing?

You can use libraries like Axios Mock Adapter or Mock Service Worker to simulate API responses in your Vue.js applications.

Can you show me an example of using Axios Mock Adapter?

Sure! First, install it using npm. Then, you can set it up like this:

import axios from 'axios';
import MockAdapter from 'axios-mock-adapter';

const mock = new MockAdapter(axios);

mock.onGet('/api/data').reply(200, { data: 'mocked data' });

What about using Mock Service Worker?

Mock Service Worker is great for intercepting network requests. You can set it up by installing it and creating a service worker file to handle your API routes.

Are there any best practices for API mocking?

Yes, keep your mocks realistic, ensure they cover edge cases, and regularly update them to reflect any changes in your API.
