ocket8888 opened a new pull request #3478: Mock Traffic Ops Server
URL: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/pull/3478
 
 
   ## What does this PR (Pull Request) do?
   - [x] This PR is not related to any Issue
   
   Adds a "Mock" Traffic Ops server that provides static, immutable, and deterministic responses to the same routes as the actual Traffic Ops API. The purpose of this is for testing API clients (e.g. ORT, which is the client I, personally ,am specifically interested in testing with this), since the API itself cannot be guaranteed to produce the same response to subsequent requests made to any given endpoint.
   
   ## Which Traffic Control components are affected by this PR?
   - Documentation
   - Traffic Control Client (Go)
   
   ## What is the best way to verify this PR?
   Please build and run the mock Traffic Ops server (see the provided README in `traffic_ops/client_tests`), and build and view the documentation (which can be found under "Tools"). No tests are provided because that feels like a dependency recursion... But more seriously because the intention is for this to BE a testing tool.
   
   ## If this is a bug fix, what versions of Traffic Ops are affected?
   N/A
