To add to this mock.Mock also copies dir(spec) but creating an instance from mock doesn't copy it where it's not a problem with create_autospec. Mock with spec does only attribute validation whereas create_autospec does signature validation. There is another open issue to make mock use spec passed as if it's autospecced issue30587 where this could be used as a data point to change API. I am adding mock devs for confirmation. ---------- nosy: +cjw296, mariocj89, michael.foord versions: +Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36580> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
