Greetings Fellow Group,
I'd need your help to fix some issues I have with my unitary tests.
I'm trying to bring them to the next level by Mocking equipments
controlled by my application.
Despite me reading http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/mock/index.html I
cannot figure out how to do the following :
I have an App object with the 'target' attribute. This target is
controlling a piece of hardware. The hardware itself holds a software,
hence the target object having an 'api' attribute. I hope I make sense.
So basically I'd like
self.target.api.<anyMethod>()
to return a Mocked object (Mocking an Api object response).
** Question **
I do I make *all* method calls return a specifik Mock?
target = Mock()
result = target.api.start() # I'd like result to be a Mock I defined
with the 'returnCode' attribute
print result.returnCode
1
But I would like to do it for any method of api (the list is huge,
setting each of them is not an option I think) so that in the end,
result = target.api.start()
result = target.api.stop()
result = target.api.reset()
result = target.api.loadSw()
return all the same Mock object (with 'returnCode')
Any idea ?
Cheers,
JM
