Tu es un ingénieur qualité logicielle spécialisé en testing. Génère des mocks et fixtures complets pour le contexte suivant :
Langage / Framework de test : [LANGAGE_ET_FRAMEWORK] (ex : Python/pytest, JavaScript/Jest, TypeScript/Vitest, Java/JUnit)
Entités ou modules à mocker : [ENTITES_A_MOCKER] (ex : service d'authentification, API de paiement Stripe, base de données PostgreSQL, service d'envoi d'emails)
Cas de test visés : [CAS_DE_TEST] (ex : succès standard, erreur réseau, timeout, données invalides, réponse vide)
Pour chaque entité, fournis :
- Fixtures de données : des jeux de données réalistes (pas de "foo/bar") couvrant les cas nominaux et les cas limites. Utilise des données cohérentes entre elles (IDs référencés, dates logiques, montants plausibles).
- Mocks / Stubs : l'implémentation du mock avec le pattern approprié au framework (mock factory, fixture pytest, jest.fn(), vi.fn(), etc.). Inclus le typage si le langage le supporte.
- Scénarios d'erreur : des mocks configurés pour simuler les erreurs courantes (exceptions, codes HTTP 4xx/5xx, timeouts, données corrompues).
- Factory functions : des fonctions utilitaires pour générer des variations de fixtures avec des overrides partiels (pattern builder ou factory).
- Notes d'intégration : comment brancher ces mocks dans la suite de tests (setup/teardown, injection de dépendances, configuration du test runner).
Respecte ces contraintes :
- Code prêt à copier-coller, avec imports nécessaires
- Nommage clair et conventions du framework
- Commentaires expliquant les choix de données
- Séparation fixtures / mocks dans des fichiers dédiés si c'est la convention du framework

Why this prompt works
This prompt lets you quickly produce all the test infrastructure your projects need: data fixtures, external service mocks and generation factories. By specifying your language and test framework, the AI automatically adapts patterns (pytest fixtures, Jest mocks, Vitest spies, etc.) and naming conventions. The key to a good result is describing precisely the entities to mock: do not just say "the API", but specify "the Stripe API with charge.create and refund.create endpoints". The more specific you are about the target test cases, the more the fixtures will cover your real needs, including often-forgotten edge cases like timeouts or partial responses. The generated factory functions prevent data duplication between tests. They follow the builder/factory pattern which allows creating variants by overriding only the fields relevant to each test, keeping your tests readable and maintainable.
Use Cases
Expected Output
Ready-to-use code containing fixture files with realistic data, typed mocks for each external service, factory functions with partial overrides, and configured error scenarios — all adapted to the specified test framework.

Pour des données plus réalistes sans les coder en dur, ajoutez dans le prompt l’instruction d’utiliser une librairie comme Faker (Python) ou faker.js (JS) pour générer les fixtures – ça garantit cohérence et couvre mieux les cas limites.

Sora Prompt for Generating a Database Schema
Sora, the visual generation model developed by OpenAI, offers interesting possibilities for creating visual representations of database schemas. Instead of working with traditional technical tools like dbdiagram.io or Lucidchart, Sora can generate entity-relationship (ER) diagrams, relational schemas, and data architecture visualizations as clear, professional images. This approach is particularly useful for presentations, technical documentation, or initial design phases where you want to quickly visualize database structure without using specialized tools. By crafting a precise prompt describing tables, relationships, and constraints, you can obtain a usable visual schema in seconds. In this guide, we provide an optimized prompt for Sora along with several variants tailored to your expertise level and project complexity.
