niquests-mock 0.3.1

RESPX-like HTTP mocking for niquests

niquests-mock

RESPX-style HTTP mocking for niquests.

Installation

uv add niquests-mock

or

pip install niquests-mock

Usage

Fixture Style

This is the closest workflow to respx_mock in pytest.

import niquests


def test_fixture_style(niquests_mock):
    route = niquests_mock.get("https://example.org/")
    route.respond(status_code=200)

    response = niquests.get("https://example.org/")

    assert route.called
    assert response.status_code == 200

The plugin also exposes respx_mock as a compatibility alias for easier migration from respx.

Development

Decorator Style

Useful when you want the test to look almost exactly like a respx-based test.

import niquests
import niquests_mock as nmock


@nmock.mock
def test_decorator_style():
    route = nmock.get("https://example.org/", name="homepage").respond(status_code=200)
    response = niquests.get("https://example.org/")

    route.assert_called_once()
    assert nmock.lookup("homepage") is route
    assert response.status_code == 200

Decorator factory arguments work too:

import niquests
import niquests_mock as nmock


@nmock.mock(assert_all_called=True, base_url="https://api.example.test")
def test_strict_routes():
    nmock.get("/health", name="health").respond(status_code=200)

    response = niquests.get("https://api.example.test/health")

    assert response.status_code == 200

Context Manager Style

Best when you want explicit router lifetime inside the test body.

import niquests
from niquests_mock import MockRouter


def test_context_manager():
    with MockRouter(base_url="https://api.example.test") as router:
        users = router.get("/users", name="users.list").respond(
            status_code=200,
            json=[{"id": 1, "name": "Ada"}],
        )

        response = niquests.get("https://api.example.test/users")

    assert router["users.list"] is users
    users.assert_called_once()
    assert response.json() == [{"id": 1, "name": "Ada"}]
