Here a complete example of my problem (with comments): from mock import MagicMock, call, patch class Bla: def test1(self, value): pass mocked_object = MagicMock(Bla) bla = Bla() bla.test1("hello") # empty, why? print(mocked_object.mock_calls) # does not work: mocked_object.test1.assert_called_with("hello") with patch("__main__.Bla") as mocked_object: bla = Bla() bla.test1("hello") # not empty! print(mocked_object.mock_calls) # does also not work: mocked_object.test1.assert_called_with("hello") # but this does work: assert call().test1("hello") in mocked_object.mock_calls I don't wanna patch each individual method.
