Grpc Mock

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: backend  ·  Last updated:
lang:pythonlang:go
Wraps gRPC server-mocking patterns for client-side tests: Go bufconn (in-memory net.Listener via google.golang.org/grpc/test/bufconn) + mockgen-generated interface mocks, Python pytest-grpc fixtures + unittest.mock patching of stubs, JVM grpc-mock library / in-process gRPC server (InProcessServerBuilder), Node @grpc/grpc-js fake server with NewServer-on-port-0. Use when writing client-side tests that need a controllable gRPC server response (success cases, error cases per grpc-status-code-mapping-reference, timeouts, and single-response error injection) without spinning up a real backend. For multi-message streaming-sequence tests (server-streaming, bidi), use grpc-streaming-test-author instead. Distinct from grpcurl-cli (ad-hoc CLI invocation against a real server) and ghz-load (perf against a real server).

What this skill does

Grpc Mock is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the backend sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/grpc-mock/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when writing client-side tests that need a controllable gRPC server response (success cases, error cases per grpc-status-code-mapping-reference, timeouts, and single-response error injection) without spinning up a real backend. For multi-message streaming-sequence tests (server-streaming, bidi), use grpc-streaming-test-author instead.

When should I use the Grpc Mock skill?
Use Grpc Mock when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the backend area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Grpc Mock" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Grpc Mock skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Grpc Mock is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category.
