This document introduces Pretenders, a tool for testing applications that rely on external network services. Pretenders allows setting up mock HTTP and SMTP servers to test how applications handle different response types from external APIs and services. It works by pre-programming responses, replaying them during tests, and verifying requests. Tests can point applications to Pretenders' mock servers instead of real services for integration testing without patching code. Pretenders runs mock servers separately from the main server for configuration and results collection. Sample client test code is shown to define presets, run an application using the mock, and verify requests.
