mock

Make loading, retry, and empty states visible before the backend exists.

Mock behavior is local and route-aware. Use delay for realistic loading state and random errors for retry UI. Keep random failures off unless the app is actively exercising failure handling.

Delay and errors

export default defineConfig({
  mock: {
    delay: [50, 300],
    errors: {
      rate: 0.05,
      status: 503,
      message: 'Random local mock failure',
    },
  },
});

Schema-only seed records

export default defineConfig({
  seed: {
    generateFromSchema: true,
    generatedCount: 5,
  },
});

State coverage checklist

Default delay is enough to show spinners and skeletons.

error

Random failures are useful only while retry behavior is under test.

empty

Schema-generated records can unblock empty resource views.

local

Mocking never replaces app-owned policy or production monitoring.
