模拟请求发布响应 __dict__ 和 status_code python

Question

I need to mock a request.post with both status_code and __dict__ . I tried this

    @patch("tests.requests.post", Autospec=True)
    def test_create_job(self,, mock_post):
        mock_post.return_value = Mock(status_code=200, __dict__={"a": "b"})

without success, I tried this one also mock_post.return_value.__dict__ = {'a': 'b'} and works but not when I want also the 200

any suggestion?

Answer 1

You can do:

mock_post.return_value.__dict__ = {'a': 'b', status_code=200}

But this way you replace the dictionary with all of Mock attributes, after which you won't be able to call for example assert_called_once_with method.

Why do are you trying to set custom __dict__ ? Why not:

mock_post.return_value = 200
mock_post.a = 'b'

or

mock_post.return_value = Mock(return_value=200, a=b)
