I'm interested in whether anyone thinks this is a good idea?

I have found it useful - its a module which provides a mock api endpoint which can be used to replace a real API endpoint which Drupal needs to talk to during tests.

Expectations can be set for requests to the API and responses can also be set. The tests can then be made to pass or fail depending on if the expectations are met.

Sandbox code here including an example of how to use it within a FeatureContext :-
