New submission from Antoine Pitrou:
assert_called_with currently compares every argument for equality, which is not
very practical when one of the arguments is a complex object, of which you only
want to check certain properties.
It could be very nice if you could write e.g.:
from mock import Mock, PLACEHOLDER
...
my_mock(1, someobj(), bar=someotherobj()):
foo, bar = my_mock.assert_called_with(
1, PLACEHOLDER, bar=PLACEHOLDER)
self.assertIsInstance(bar, someobj)
self.assertIsInstance(foo, someotherobj)
(another name for PLACEHOLDER could be CAPTURE, regex-style :-))
