 ## DNS Module
 
-The `DNS` module provides a naïve DNS parser/serializer.
+The `DNS` module provides utilities related to the `dns` built-in module.
+
+### errorLookupMock(code, syscall)
+
+* `code` [&lt;String>] Defaults to `dns.mockedErrorCode`.
+* `syscall` [&lt;String>] Defaults to `dns.mockedSysCall`.
+* return [&lt;Function>]
+
+
+A mock for the `lookup` option of `net.connect()` that would result in an error
+with the `code` and the `syscall` specified. Returns a function that has the
+same signature as `dns.lookup()`.
+
+### mockedErrorCode
+
+The default `code` of errors generated by `errorLookupMock`.
+
+### mockedSysCall
+
+The default `syscall` of errors generated by `errorLookupMock`.
