Python returns MagicMock object instead of return_value
问题 I have a python file a.py which contains two classes A and B . class A(object): def method_a(self): return "Class A method a" class B(object): def method_b(self): a = A() print a.method_a() I would like to unittest method_b in class B by mocking A . Here is the content of the file testa.py for this purpose: import unittest import mock import a class TestB(unittest.TestCase): @mock.patch('a.A') def test_method_b(self, mock_a): mock_a.method_a.return_value = 'Mocked A' b = a.B() b.method_b() if
