Simulate modeΒΆ

In this mode, Hoverfly uses its simulation data in order to simulate external APIs. Each time Hoverfly receives a request, rather than forwarding it on to the real API, it will respond instead. No network traffic will ever reach the real external API.

The simulation can be produced automatically via by running Hoverfly in Capture mode, or created manually. See Simulations for information.
