NAME

Finance::IG::REST::Client - Module to mock REST::Client when testing Finance::IG

DESCRIPTION

This module mocks REST::CLient. Rather than sending request via the internet a series of files with names derived from a hash of url and parameters are retrieved and contain the expected respons.

The module is intended to be used with use Package::Alias, see below.

The files can be generated with the module in Testing::Record::REST::Client, but you will need an IG account to run generate files as you will need to really access the IG site.
