Mocking on proxying about nock

[pgte]

I think there is a misunderstanding here.

Nock doesn't make HTTP requests, it mocks servers, so your request never reaches the proxy.

And it looks here like you were trying to test node-http-proxy??

[andreareginato]

Yes, I'm trying to test the proxy. I call it (running on :8000) and I want to intercept the underlying service which is called (running on :3000). I mocked :3000 but it isn't catch.

[pgte]

Is the proxy being run on the same process as the test?

[andreareginato]

No, the proxy is independent and let it running as another process. Then I
run the test suite.
If I try to catch the :8000 request it works fine, but not with the :3000.

Thanks for your time.

OK, so that's why it doesn't work.
Nock mocks http requests, but you have to be on the same process to expect that to be mocked.
