I have a dao.py module with a dao class declared and I want to use mock to set
a return value for a dao function, dao.execute_ldap_search().
import mock
import unittest
import model, dao
class TestPeopleDAO(unittest.TestCase):
ldap_person_response = SOME_DICT
@mock.patch('dao.dao')
def test_find_by_last_first_comma(self, mock_dao):
# setup the mock
mock_dao.execute_ldap_search.return_value = self.ldap_person_response
persondao = dao.person_dao()
persondao.find_by_last_first_comma('name', '', '')
self.assertEqual(len(persondao),1,"Wrong number of objects returned.")
self.assertEqual(persondao[0].givenName, "FirstName", "Failed to parse
response.")
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
When I run this, it fails when calling execute_ldap_search because it really
calls it. I was expecting it to just return the value I specified. What am I
doing wrong?
