• can be run as a localhost service, or bundled within a web browser.
• used for testing client side ui code deeply against a known (fake) backend
• contract tests to ensure the fake matches the remote
• supports JSON and message pack wire protocols

## Tests

As @fakehost/signalr is a fake version of a real dotnet signalr service.

1. There is a real signalr server signalr-test-dotnet-svc. This is a real dotnet signalr service. We use a typescript client generation tool TypedSignalR to generate a typescript client library for calling this remote service. This generate code is outputted to signalr-test-client-api

2. There is a fake implementation of the hubs from the dotnet service signalr-test-dotnet-svc in the signalr-test-fake-svc. This is a nodejs fake implementations of the real dotnet services.

3. Along with the fake implementation in signalr-test-fake-svc there are contract tests for each hub. These contract tests run against the fakes (yarn test) and are also run against the real dotnet service (yarn test:contract). This ensures that fake version has the exact same behaviour as the real dotnet service, and as such:

The @fakehost/signalr behaves identically to a real dotnet signalr service
