About Intercepto - API Mocking & Request Interceptor

Intercepto is a lightweight Chrome extension that allows frontend developers, QA engineers, and API testers to intercept, mock, and override HTTP API requests directly within the browser no backend changes required. Effortlessly test edge cases, error states, and unreleased API endpoints by customising HTTP status codes (200, 404, 500, etc.) and response bodies on the fly. 🚀 Key Features: • Instant Request Interception: Match incoming network calls by URL pattern and HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH). • Capture real traffic and turn any response into a rule — prefilled URL, method, status, and body • Custom Status Codes: Easily test how your application handles 200 OK, 401 Unauthorized, 404 Not Found, 500 Server Errors, and custom codes. • Dynamic Response Bodies: Mock JSON or text response payloads right inside your browser session. • Rule-Based Execution: Create, toggle, and manage multiple interceptor rules with a clean UI. • Fast & Lightweight: Zero overhead, no heavy background dependencies, and 100% privacy-focused. • Organize rules into named groups and toggle a whole state (e.g. "logged out", "payment failed") at once 💡 Common Use Cases: • Frontend Development: Build UI components before backend API endpoints are ready. • QA & Bug Testing: Instantly reproduce edge cases, network failures, and bad gateway errors without touching server logs. • Demo & Sandbox Environments: Present consistent test data during live product presentations. • Offline & Isolated Testing: Prototype features without needing a local backend running. 🔒 Privacy & Security First: Intercepto operates entirely locally inside your browser. Your network requests, payloads, and rules are never sent to external servers or third parties. Get started in seconds—install Intercepto today to simplify your Web API development workflow!
