到 function 的模拟补丁路径

Question

Is there a more easy way to get this path when mocking functions?

@mock.patch('folder1.folder2.file.class.get_some_information', side_effect=mocked_information)

I would like to have the path for the function get_some_information generated automatically. Thanks!

Answer 1

Helper package to generate paths for mocking: github.com/pksol/mock_autogen#generating-the-arrange-section

Answer 2

If you have the function object get_some_information , you can generate the said path by joining with a dot the object's __module__ attribute, for package name and module name, and the __qualname__ attribute, for class name and function name:

'.'.join(get_some_information.__module__, get_some_information.__qualname__)
