I have a django class based view that I'm decorating. Unfortunately that decorator makes outside calls to do status checks which is outside the scope of what the unit test should do so I want to override the decorator to do nothing during my unit tests. Here is my decorator:
decorators.py
def status_check(func):
@wraps(func)
def wrapped(request, *args, **kwargs):
uri = settings.SERVER_URI
status_code = None
bad_status = [404, 500]
try:
response = requests.head(uri)
except requests.ConnectionError as err:
LOGGER.error('Server is hosed! Oh Noes! Error: %s ' % (err))
raise Http404
except Exception as err:
LOGGER.error('Some crazy stuff is happening. Its Bad. '
'Error: %s' % (err))
raise Http404
status_code = response.status_code
if not status_code or status_code in bad_status:
LOGGER.error('Awww Snap! Server is not happy: %s' % (status_code))
raise Http404
return func(request, *args, **kwargs)
return wrapped
views.py
class HandleFoo(DetailView):
@method_decorator(status_check)
def post(self, request):
# do stuff here
tests.py
class RunTest(TestCase):
def test_post(self):
post_data = json.dumps({'stuff': 'vodka', 'things': 'tonic'})
resp = self.client.post(self.foo_uri,
post_data,
content_type='application/json',
)
self.assertEqual(resp.status_code, 200)
So is there a way for me to either override the decorator or can I bypass it altogether? I'm rather stumped on this.
EDIT Tried mocking out the request using the following from krak3n:
@patch('app.views.method_decorator.status_check', lambda func: func)
@patch('app.views.status_check', lambda func: func)
@patch('app.decorators.status_check', lambda func: func)
@patch('app.views.HandleFoo.post', lambda func: func)
The last method gets me the closest thus far, but it ends up throwing a stacktrace:

I think your gonna have to get into the dark underworld of Mock, but once you get your head around it (if you haven't already) the dark underworld turns into a bright blue heavenly sky of mockiness.
You could use the patch module of Mock to to patch this decorator so your views using it can become more testable: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/mock/patch.html. Personally I have not tried mocking a decorator before but it should work...
@patch('python.path.to.decorator', new_callable=PropertyMock)
def my_test(self, decorator_mock):
# your test code
Give that a whirl.
You can read about the patch module in Mock here: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/mock/patch.html
edit
new_callable=PropertyMock is probably not the right thing to do for patching a decorator.
Perhaps try:
@patch('python.path.to.decorator', lambda: func: func)
def my_test(self):
# your test code
This should in theory patch the decorator so it just returns the function back rather than does all the stuff you have in wrapped.
