mocking-utils

Highly useful utilities for mocking execution flow during unit test execution.

Quick Start

Installation

pip install mocking-utils

Usage

from mocking_utils import MockFunction

class A(object):
    def my_method(self):
        print('I am in my_method')

a = A()
a.my_method()  # Out: 'I am in my_method'
mock = MockFunction(A, 'my_method', lambda x: print('lambda function'), call=True)
a.my_method()  # Out: 'lambda function'
mock.reset()
a.my_method()  # Out: 'I am in my_method'

Examples

pytest

from mocking_utils import MockFunction

@pytest.fixture(scope='module', autouse=True)
def setup__teardown():
    """
    Standard setup & teardown within a module of unit tests.
    """
    mocks = [
        MockFunction(A, 'my_method', lambda x: print('lambda function'), call=True)
        ]
    yield 'Setup complete'
    [mock.reset() for mock in mocks]
