i have a questions about mock objects. i currently have a django view
function that calls a 2nd function. this second function calls
urllib2.urlopen. i was thinking about adding in a mock object so i
can get some better code coverage in the 2nd function when calling
manage.py test. my first thought was to create a mock
urllib2.urlopen function, but how do i inject it into the code from a
django unit test? is there a best practice way to do this?
def foo_view(request):
...
foo_func(...):
...
return HttpResponse('response')
def foo_func(...):
...
response = urllib2.urlopen(url)
tree = etree.parse(response)
try:
if tree.xpath('/exception'):
raise FooError()
else:
result_attribute = tree.xpath('/success/@n-success')[0] ==
'1'
except IndexError:
result_attribute = False
return result_attribute
import unittest
import os
from django.test.client import Client
class TestFoo(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.client = Client()
def test_foo(self):
# how do i inject a mock urllib2.urlopen into foo_func?
thanks,
bryan
