If you don't want to test the full HTTP stack as described by Ezequiel Muns, you can also just mock out endpoints.method and test your API definition directly:

def null_decorator(*args, **kwargs):
    def decorator(method):
        def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            return method(*args, **kwargs)
        return wrapper
    return decorator

from google.appengine.api.users import User
import endpoints
endpoints.method = null_decorator
# decorator needs to be mocked out before you load you endpoint api definitions
from mymodule import api


class FooTest(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.api = api.FooService()

    def test_bar(self):
        # pass protorpc messages directly
        self.api.foo_bar(api.MyRequestMessage(some='field'))
