Generate an Idempotency-Key header mock with UUID in Python
This code provides a mock idempotency service that generates a UUID-based Idempotency-Key header token and validates it, useful for simulating production API behavior in tests.
import uuid
class MockIdempotencyService:
def __init__(self):
self._tokens = {}
def get_token(self, header_name="Idempotency-Key"):
token = str(uuid.uuid4())
self._tokens[header_name] = token
return token
def validate(self, header_name="Idempotency-Key"):
return s…
