## What it is
An axios adapter that intercepts and mocks HTTP requests made with the axios client. It lets developers define canned responses, delays, network errors, and timeouts for testing without hitting real endpoints.

## Use cases
- mock axios requests in unit tests
- simulate API responses for frontend development
- test network error and timeout handling
- stub HTTP endpoints with specific query params
- add artificial latency to mocked responses

## When to choose
- you use axios and need request mocking in Jest/Mocha tests
- you want to simulate failures like network errors or timeouts
- you need a lightweight dev-time mock without running a server

## When to avoid
- you don't use axios as your HTTP client
- you need full contract testing or a standalone mock server
- you need to mock fetch or other non-axios requests

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: mocking, testing, http-client
- domain: testing, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: axios, http-mocking, unit-testing, stubbing, javascript, nodejs
