You can use ``MagicMock`` without having to + configure the magic methods yourself. + + The constructor parameters have the same meaning as for :class:`Mock`. + + If you use the `spec` or `spec_set` arguments then *only* magic methods + that exist in the spec will be created. + + +.. class:: NonCallableMagicMock(*args, **kw) + + A non-callable version of `MagicMock`. + + The constructor parameters have the same meaning as for + :class:`MagicMock`, with the exception of `return_value` and + `side_effect` which have no meaning on a non-callable mock. + +The magic methods are setup with `MagicMock` objects, so you can configure them +and use them in the usual way: + +.. doctest:: + + >>> mock = MagicMock() + >>> mock[3] = 'fish' + >>> mock.__setitem__.assert_called_with(3, 'fish') + >>> mock.__getitem__.return_value = 'result' + >>> mock[2] + 'result' + +By default many of the protocol methods are required to return objects of a +specific type. These methods are preconfigured with a default return value, so +that they can be used without you having to do anything if you aren't interested +in the return value. You can still *set* the return value manually if you want +to change the default. + +Methods and their defaults: + +* ``__lt__``: NotImplemented +* ``__gt__``: NotImplemented +* ``__le__``: NotImplemented +* ``__ge__``: NotImplemented +* ``__int__`` : 1 +* ``__contains__`` : False +* ``__len__`` : 1 +* ``__iter__`` : iter([]) +* ``__exit__`` : False +* ``__complex__`` : 1j +* ``__float__`` : 1.0 +* ``__bool__`` : True +* ``__nonzero__`` : True +* ``__oct__`` : '1' +* ``__hex__`` : '0x1' +* ``__long__`` : long(1) +* ``__index__`` : 1 +* ``__hash__`` : default hash for the mock +* ``__str__`` : default str for the mock +* ``__unicode__`` : default unicode for the mock +* ``__sizeof__``: default sizeof for the mock + +For example: + +.. doctest:: + + >>> mock = MagicMock() + >>> int(mock) + 1 + >>> len(mock) + 0 + >>> hex(mock) + '0x1' + >>> list(mock) + [] + >>> object() in mock + False + +The two equality method, `__eq__` and `__ne__`, are special (changed in +0.7.2). They do the default equality comparison on identity, using a side +effect, unless you change their return value to return something else: + +.. doctest:: + + >>> MagicMock() == 3 + False + >>> MagicMock() != 3 + True + >>> mock = MagicMock() + >>> mock.__eq__.return_value = True + >>> mock == 3 + True + +In `0.8` the `__iter__` also gained special handling implemented with a +side effect. The return value of `MagicMock.__iter__` can be any iterable +object and isn't required to be an iterator: + +.. doctest:: + + >>> mock = MagicMock() + >>> mock.__iter__.return_value = ['a', 'b', 'c'] + >>> list(mock) + ['a', 'b', 'c'] + >>> list(mock) + ['a', 'b', 'c'] + +If the return value *is* an iterator, then iterating over it once will consume +it and subsequent iterations will result in an empty list: + +.. doctest:: + + >>> mock.__iter__.return_value = iter(['a', 'b', 'c']) + >>> list(mock) + ['a', 'b', 'c'] + >>> list(mock) + [] + +``MagicMock`` has all of the supported magic methods configured except for some +of the obscure and obsolete ones. You can still set these up if you want. + +Magic methods that are supported but not setup by default in ``MagicMock`` are: + +* ``__cmp__`` +* ``__getslice__`` and ``__setslice__`` +* ``__coerce__`` +* ``__subclasses__`` +* ``__dir__`` +* ``__format__`` +* ``__get__``, ``__set__`` and ``__delete__`` +* ``__reversed__`` and ``__missing__`` +* ``__reduce__``, ``__reduce_ex__``, ``__getinitargs__``, ``__getnewargs__``, + ``__getstate__`` and ``__setstate__`` +* ``__getformat__`` and ``__setformat__`` + + + +------------ + +.. [#] Magic methods *should* be looked up on the class rather than the + instance. Different versions of Python are inconsistent about applying this + rule. The supported protocol methods should work with all supported versions + of Python. +.. [#] The function is basically hooked up to the class, but each ``Mock`` + instance is kept isolated from the others. |
