What steps will reproduce the problem?
Let's imagine this scenario.
* root
** folder_a
*** __init__.py
*** folder_b
**** __init__.py
**** x.py
**** y.py
x.py:
class A:
def a():
pass
y.py:
from x import A
def foo():
i = A()
print i
y_test.py:
...
from y import foo
@patch('y.A')
def test_sometest(self, mock):
foo()
...
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1. When I call python -m unittest -p '*_test.py' from the folder_b then
everything works. Test prints <MagicMock name='A()' id='19568912'> with patch
decorator and tests prints <x.A instance at 0xd022d8> without patch decorator
2. When I call python -m unittest -p '*_test.py' from any folder above e.g. root
then patch fails
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mock-1.0.0-py2.7.egg/mock.py",
line 1182, in patched
arg = patching.__enter__()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mock-1.0.0-py2.7.egg/mock.py", line 1241, in __enter__
self.target = self.getter()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mock-1.0.0-py2.7.egg/mock.py", line 1403, in <lambda>
getter = lambda: _importer(target)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mock-1.0.0-py2.7.egg/mock.py", line 1087, in _importer
thing = __import__(import_path)
ImportError: No module named y
and when i remove patch decorator, then test prints <folder_a.folder_b.x.A
instance at 0x29f7560>
