HTTP Request Mocking Library

http-request-mock is a versatile JavaScript/TypeScript library designed for intercepting and mocking HTTP requests across various environments and client libraries. It operates at a low level, directly hooking into XMLHttpRequest, fetch, and Node.js's native http/https modules, allowing it to mock requests from popular libraries like Axios, jQuery, Superagent, Ky, Node-Fetch, and Got without specific integrations for each. The current stable version is 2.0.2. The library aims to provide a 'non-hacking' approach to mocking by offering a webpack plugin and a command-line tool, enabling separation of mock data from business logic and eliminating the need for code modifications during development or testing. Its core differentiator is this low-level, environment-agnostic interception combined with tooling for externalizing mock configurations, which distinguishes it from libraries that require proxy setups or direct code alterations.
