System for real-time management of session objects and for application programming interface (API) mocking

A system for real-time management of a plurality of session objects and for mocking a plurality of application programming interfaces ("APIs"). The system may include a cluster of servers. Each server may provide a backend service to a virtual assistant. Each backend service may execute an API. The system may also include a computing device operable to execute the virtual assistant in a test mode. The system may include a communication channel between the computing device and the cluster of servers. The communication channel may transmit API requests from the virtual assistant to the cluster, and JSON responses from the cluster to the virtual assistant. The system may include a mocked-up services server operable to replicate the cluster. The system may include a bypass communication channel between the communication channel and mocked-up services server. The bypass communication channel may redirect API requests to the mocked-up services server.
