Cannot mock 5xx responses about test_server HOT 3 CLOSED

I have the solution. If your code expects to be able to do intelligent handling of 408/429/5xx responses you must pass retry: false to Req or else this kind of scenario surfaces and you will not be able to validate it in your tests.

Req is batteries included, but this is more than I expected 🥲

Sorry for the noise, hopefully someone else finds this useful.

I started digging deeper and found the error message is actually from Req.

I'm in the process of attempting to switch a project away from Tesla/Tesla.Mock to Req/TestServer

Yeah, by default req will retry four times, so either you'll have to add four expectations (could be a small helper function you wrap around TestServer.add/2), or add retry: false as you did (though that setting should only exist for test env). I think the latter is much better choice because otherwise the test becomes super slow with the throttle that req has on retries.
