Fake Routes is a Chrome extension developed by rahul bhattacharya, available for free in the Browsers category under Add-ons & Tools. This tool allows users to create fake express routes for their websites, specifically designed for functional testing purposes. By utilizing fake routes, users can simulate express routes that return hardcoded JSON responses, eliminating the need to hit the database during testing.

With Fake Routes, users can easily navigate their websites while the extension is active. Any requests that generate a JSON response will be displayed in a convenient popup window for quick reference. Once testing is complete, users can download the generated express routes file. By incorporating these routes into an express project and including the dist folder from the website being tested, users can streamline their testing process effectively.
