cloudmock is a mock implementation of the CloudProvider APIs.
The goal is to let us test code that interacts with the CloudProvider APIs, without creating actual resources.
While no resources are created, we maintain state so that (for example) after you call CreateVpc
, a subsequent
call to DescribeVpcs
will return that VPC. The end-goal is that we simulate the CloudProvider APIs accurately,
so that we can quickly run test-cases that might otherwise require a lot of time or money to run with real
resources.
In future, we can also do fault injection etc.
Note: The APIs are very large, and most of them are not implemented. Functions that are implemented may not be implemented correctly, particularly around edge-cases (such as error handling).
Typical AWS use: c := &mockec2.MockEC2{}
. MockEC2
implements the EC2 API interface ec2iface.EC2API
,
so can be used where otherwise you would use a real EC2 client.
