Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
Without lines numbers, I cannot test which of the two identical asserts failed. Either comments or msg arguments will differentiate. Nor can I run snippets from two different files. Here is a minimal reproducible self-contained code that demonstrates the claim (which I verified on 3.9 and current master). import unittest from unittest.mock import Mock class SomethingElse(object): def __init__(self): self._instance = None @property def instance(self): if not self._instance: self._instance = 'object' class Test(unittest.TestCase): def test_property_not_called_with_spec_mock(self): obj = SomethingElse() self.assertIsNone(obj._instance, msg='before') # before mock = Mock(spec=obj) self.assertIsNone(obj._instance, msg='after') # after unittest.main() ---------- nosy: +michael.foord, terry.reedy versions: +Python 3.10, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41768> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
