如何在 Django 单元测试中模拟装饰器？

Question

I am trying to write simple unit test for my view. I have a decorator which authenticate by sending http request. How to mock decorator of my view and run unit test?

my views.py

@method_decorator(authentication_decorator, name='post')
class AddBlogView(CreateAPIView):
    serializer_class = BlogSerializer

Answer 1

Try this (adapt the code for your app and file names):

from mock import patch
patch('app.decorators.authentication_decorator', lambda x: x).start()  # This line must come before other imports

from app.views import AddBlogView
# Test AddBlogView
