## What it is
Mock.js is a JavaScript library that generates simulated random data from data templates and intercepts Ajax requests to return mock responses. It lets front-end developers build and prototype independently of the back-end and write more realistic automated tests.

## Use cases
- generate random mock data for frontend development
- intercept ajax requests and return fake responses
- prototype frontend without a backend
- create realistic test data for unit tests
- mock emails, images, dates, and other data types in templates

## When to choose
- you need to develop or demo a frontend before the API exists
- you want non-invasive ajax mocking without changing existing code
- you need varied random data (text, numbers, dates, images) for tests

## When to avoid
- you need full contract-based API mocking or service virtualization
- your project uses modern tooling better served by MSW or similar
- you need actively maintained software with recent commits

## Facets
- artifact type: library
