08:54 PMHey there! I am using the typesense-js client to make requests and i want to test my react component with mock data. Are you aware of any way to intercept the typesense request through the client and return stubbed data? Maybe an example with jest?

axios, so you can use axios-mock-adapter to mock responses.08:57
