+<p class="last"><a class="reference internal" href="helpers.html#auto-speccing"><em>Autospeccing</em></a>, added in mock 0.8, is a more advanced version of
+<cite>mocksignature</cite> and can be used for many of the same use cases.</p>
+</div>
+<p>A problem with using mock objects to replace real objects in your tests is that
+<a class="reference internal" href="mock.html#mock.Mock" title="mock.Mock"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Mock</span></tt></a> can be <em>too</em> flexible. Your code can treat the mock objects in
+any way and you have to manually check that they were called correctly. If your
+code calls functions or methods with the wrong number of arguments then mocks
+don&#8217;t complain.</p>
+<p>The solution to this is <cite>mocksignature</cite>, which creates functions with the
+same signature as the original, but delegating to a mock. You can interrogate
+the mock in the usual way to check it has been called with the <em>right</em>
+arguments, but if it is called with the wrong number of arguments it will
+raise a <cite>TypeError</cite> in the same way your production code would.</p>
+<p>Another advantage is that your mocked objects are real functions, which can
+be useful when your code uses
+<a class="reference external" href="http://docs.python.org/library/inspect.html">inspect</a> or depends on
+functions being function objects.</p>
+<dl class="function">
+<dt id="mock.mocksignature">
+<tt class="descname">mocksignature</tt><big>(</big><em>func</em>, <em>mock=None</em>, <em>skipfirst=False</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#mock.mocksignature" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
+<dd><p>Create a new function with the same signature as <cite>func</cite> that delegates
+to <cite>mock</cite>. If <cite>skipfirst</cite> is True the first argument is skipped, useful
+for methods where <cite>self</cite> needs to be omitted from the new function.</p>
+<p>If you don&#8217;t pass in a <cite>mock</cite> then one will be created for you.</p>
+<p>Functions returned by <cite>mocksignature</cite> have many of the same attributes
+and assert methods as a mock object.</p>
+<p>The mock is set as the <cite>mock</cite> attribute of the returned function for easy
+access.</p>
+<p><cite>mocksignature</cite> can also be used with classes. It copies the signature of
+the <cite>__init__</cite> method.</p>
+<p>When used with callable objects (instances) it copies the signature of the
+<cite>__call__</cite> method.</p>
+</dd></dl>
+
+<p><cite>mocksignature</cite> will work out if it is mocking the signature of a method on
+an instance or a method on a class and do the &#8220;right thing&#8221; with the <cite>self</cite>
+argument in both cases.</p>
+<p>Because of a limitation in the way that arguments are collected by functions
+created by <cite>mocksignature</cite> they are <em>always</em> passed as positional arguments
+(including defaults) and not keyword arguments.</p>
