Is it possible to make mockjax trigger a $.ajaxPrefilter?

Question

I just discovered the mockjax library, and it seems almost perfect for my testing needs. I say "almost", because there's one thing I can't seem to simulate: $.ajaxPrefilter handlers.

Normally in jQuery you can specify:

$.ajaxPrefilter(function() {
    doSomethingOnEveryAjaxCall();
});

and then whenever anyone uses $.ajax (or $.get, $.post, etc.) that doSomethingOnEveryAjaxCall function will be called.

However, if I do:

$.mockjax({url: '/test', responseText: 'test'});
$.ajax({url: '/test'});

the prefilter I setup (doSomethingOnEveryAjaxCall) doesn't get called.

Is there any way to modify that code so that the prefilter gets called even on mockjax requests/responses?

Answer 1

It turns out mockjax was capable of triggering ajax prefilters ... I just forgot to supply all of the necessary headers to make my prefilter actually trigger. Once I tried using the proper headers, the prefilter triggered as expected!
