WireMock Cloud

A Mock API for Developing and Testing Generative AI Apps

If you're building on OpenAI APIs (such as the ChatGPT API), you know that testing API calls can be expensive and slow.

MockGPT is a free tool powered by WireMock Cloud that allows you to build and test your ChatGPT-powered app against a dummy API by simply changing two config parameters (or the equivalent lines of code).

You can use this public version of MockGPT right away for basic testing or create your own free copy in WireMock Cloud for more advanced customisation.

Or take a look at this article if you'd like to learn a little more before diving in.

How to use

  • Set the base URL used by your ChatGPT client code to https://mockgpt.wiremockapi.cloud/v1.
  • Set the API key to
    (this key is unique to you).
  • Make a request to get a chat completion and receive the default stubbed response (fast!). See code examples.
  • Set the next response via the text box below then make another completion request and receive the response you configured.
  • When you're ready to switch to the live API, simply switch back the base URL and API key parameters and you're good to go!

            Replace openai.api_key with your actual OpenAI API key and remove
            openai.api_base (or replace with the relevant address for Azure
            OpenAI).

    Additional Information
    
          
    
            Testing your ChatGPT-powered app against the real OpenAI API can be
            challenging:
          
    
          
      
            
    • Responses can take seconds or even minutes to arrive
      • 
            
    • 
              Each API call costs money, and can quickly get expensive for
              longer prompts or more powerful models
            
      • 
            
    • 
              Non-deterministic responses make it hard to test specific cases
              reliably
            
      • 
            
    • Due to these reasons, CI/CD is impractical
      • 
          
    

          
    
            WireMock allows you to mock the OpenAI API and create realistic
            testing scenarios, without the lengthy waits and high costs
            associated with testing against the live API.
