API Mocking & Service Virtualization brand directory

WireMock

Rank #1 · 33.3% visibility

WireMock is a developer-first API mocking and service virtualisation platform combining a battle-tested open source library with WireMock Cloud—an AI-native managed service. It enables development and QA teams to replace real API dependencies with realistic, stateful simulations supporting REST, gRPC, GraphQL, and SOAP, deployable locally, in CI/CD, or on Kubernetes.

Mockoon

Rank #2 · 14.7% visibility

Mockoon is an open-source, desktop-first API mocking platform that lets developers create and run mock REST API servers locally in seconds, with no account or remote deployment required. It offers a GUI desktop app, a CLI for CI/CD environments, a serverless package for cloud functions, and a commercial Cloud tier for team collaboration, cloud deployments, and AI-assisted mock generation.

Apidog

Rank #3 · 10.0% visibility

Apidog is a collaborative, design-first API lifecycle platform that unifies API specification editing, smart mock server generation, low-code automated testing, and interactive documentation publishing in one tool. It eliminates context switching between Postman, Swagger, JMeter, and standalone mock services by keeping all lifecycle artifacts synchronized from a single OpenAPI definition.

Beeceptor

Rank #4 · 8.0% visibility

Beeceptor is an AI-powered API mocking and service virtualization SaaS platform that lets developers and QA engineers spin up fully functional mock servers for REST, GraphQL, SOAP, gRPC, and OpenAPI-defined services in seconds—without writing code or configuring local infrastructure.

Postman

Rank #5 · 6.0% visibility

Postman is a comprehensive AI-native API platform that unifies API design, mock server creation, automated testing, documentation, monitoring, and governance in a single collaborative environment. Its mock server capability allows teams to simulate API behavior from collections or specs within seconds, enabling parallel development and shift-left testing without waiting for backend implementation.

Stoplight

Rank #6 · 6.0% visibility

Stoplight Platform is a SaaS API design, documentation, mocking, and governance solution built around OpenAPI specifications. It provides a hybrid visual/code editor for designing APIs, automatically generates hosted mock servers via Prism from OpenAPI documents, enforces governance through Spectral-powered linting and shared style guides, and publishes interactive documentation via Elements. The platform integrates with Git providers for version control, supports enterprise access management via SAML/LDAP SSO, and exposes an API catalog for workspace-wide API portfolio visibility. Three flagship open-source tools (Prism, Spectral, Elements) underpin the platform and are independently available to the developer community.

Speedscale

Rank #7 · 2.7% visibility

Speedscale is a Kubernetes-native API testing and service virtualization platform that captures production traffic, auto-generates realistic mocks, and replays traffic deterministically in CI/CD pipelines and local sandboxes. Its core products include the cloud platform (traffic capture, replay, load testing, observability) and Proxymock (free local CLI for offline mocking). A key differentiator is MCP-native integration, enabling AI coding agents to access real production request context for regression detection and bug fixing at the pull-request stage.

Traffic Parrot

Rank #8 · 2.0% visibility

Traffic Parrot is a commercial service virtualization and API mocking platform that simulates APIs and backend systems across multiple protocols—including HTTP/S, gRPC, IBM MQ, JMS, RabbitMQ, Thrift, and file transfers—from a single lightweight component. It enables development and QA teams to decouple from unavailable dependencies, automate testing, and implement Service Virtualization As Code in Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.

Karate

Rank #9 · 0.0% visibility

Karate provides a unified, Gherkin-syntax test automation framework covering REST/GraphQL/SOAP API testing, stateful API mocking, Gatling-powered performance testing, browser/desktop UI automation, and async protocol testing (Kafka, gRPC, WebSocket). The open-source core is MIT-licensed; premium tiers add IDE productivity plugins (IntelliJ and VS Code), an Xplorer desktop API client with LLM assistance, SSO/RBAC enterprise platform features, and Karate Agent — an AI-native, self-hosted browser verification product.
