That won't work unless yourmodule and YourClass have already been
imported, since you'll get NameError.
You need to pass the names as strings, something like:
# also untested
def autoload(mod, cls, *args, **kwargs):
module = __import__(mod) # or use importlib
K = getattr(module, cls)
return K(*args, **kwargs)
obj = autoload('yourmodule', 'YourClass')
