rOpenSci package or resource used*

webmockr and vcr with the HTTP testing book. This question on ROpenSci helped me discover the tools.

What did you do?

I tested the dev.to api wrapper I wrote. I used webmockr to create stubs to the apis, and vcr to record the API response to a local disk for testing purposes. I wrote it up here.

I was already very excited about your package, now Iā€™m even more excited because it uses webmockr and vcr. :grinning:
