I can see this is a cool tool but does anyone have any real world examples of how this would be used?

- adamnemecek 12y agoIf you are developing an SPA and want to do front end first.
- RALaBarge 12y agoI use something like this to test webhooks and demonstrate that the service behind it is working.
- codeinchaos 12y agoa simple example is when developing against a third party api, and want to validate the behavior of your code and see what the HTTP request looks like, swap the API endpoints with mockbin urls and check, even mock the response with a Bin and build your client "offline" without hitting API throttling rate limits or exceeding your quotas for paid APIs, and much more :)
- sinzone 12y agohi - we have written a blog post on why/how we use this internally: http://blog.mashape.com/welcoming-mockbin-to-the-mashape-family/ http://blog.mashape.com/welcoming-mockbin-to-the-mashape-fam...
- doomspork 12y agoI've found these tools particularly useful if you've got your team divided up into frontend vs backend/platform. We would discuss and mock up the endpoint to unblock the API consumers while the actual service is built.
