Description
We currently make live http calls to the geocoding service during the automated testing. We should probably mock these calls so that we do not need to make live requests during development. This would also means that setting up a test environment would be one step easier because no access token would be required to run tests.

Research direction
Start by locating the automated tests that make live HTTP requests to the geocoding service and identify how the access token is read. Replace those live calls with mocks while preserving the test scenarios; done means the test suite makes no live geocoding requests and runs without a Mapbox access token.
