Versatile HTTP mocking made easy in Go.
Heavily inspired by nock. See also its Python port, pook.
Take a look to the examples to get started.
- Simple, expressive, fluent API.
- Semantic DSL for easy HTTP mocks definition.
- Built-in helpers for easy JSON/XML mocking.
- Supports persistent and volatile mocks.
- Full regexp capable HTTP request matching.
- Designed for both testing and runtime scenarios.
- Match request by method, URL params, headers and bodies.
- Extensible and pluggable HTTP matching rules.
- Ability to switch between mock and real networking modes.
- Ability to filter/map HTTP requests for accurate mock matching.
- Supports map and filters to handle mocks easily.
- Wide compatible HTTP interceptor using
http.RoundTripper
interface. - Works with any
net/http
compatible client, such as gentleman. - Network delay simulation (beta).
- Extensible and hackable API.
- Dependency free.
go get -u gopkg.in/h2non/gock.v1
See godoc reference for detailed API documentation.
- Intercepts any HTTP outgoing request via
http.DefaultTransport
or customhttp.Transport
used by anyhttp.Client
. - Matches outgoing HTTP requests against a pool of defined HTTP mock expectations in FIFO declaration order.
- If at least one mock matches, it will be used in order to compose the mock HTTP response.
- If no mock can be matched, it will resolve the request with an error, unless real networking mode is enable, in which case a real HTTP request will be performed.
Declare your mocks before you start declaring the concrete test logic:
func TestFoo(t *testing.T) {
defer gock.Off() // Flush pending mocks after test execution
gock.New("http://server.com").
Get("/bar").
Reply(200).
JSON(map[string]string{"foo": "bar"})
// Your test code starts here...
}
If you're running concurrent code, be aware that your mocks are declared first to avoid unexpected
race conditions while configuring gock
or intercepting custom HTTP clients.
gock
is not fully thread-safe, but sensible parts are. Any help making gock
more reliable in this sense is highly appreciated.
If you're mocking a bunch of mocks in the same test suite, it's recommended to define the more concrete mocks first, and then the generic ones.
This approach usually avoids matching unexpected generic mocks (e.g: specific header, body payload...) instead of the generic ones that performs less complex matches.
See examples directory for more featured use cases.

You can easily hack gock
defining custom matcher functions with own matching rules.
See add matcher functions and custom matching layer examples for further details.
