Mock/Stub/Spy library for Python
Project description
FlexMock is a mock/stub/spy library for Python.
It takes inspiration from a Ruby library of the same name, and as a result introduces much simpler syntax than other Python mocking libraries that are largely ported from Java. The aim of Python FlexMock is to be able to provide full support for mocking Python-specific features, and make the creation of fake objects as unobtrusive as possible.
More details, along with comparisons to other Python mocking libraries, are available here:

SUPPORTS:
test runner integration, i.e. automatic expectation checking on tearDown
advanced argument matching, including matching types and user-defined classes
expectations on number of times called, including at_least/at_most
mocks returning custom values, including different values on successive invokations
mocks raising custom exceptions
simple syntax for generating new mock objects
overriding new instances (on new-style objects)
parameter shortcuts for even terser syntax
proxying/spying using the and_execute expectation modifier
mocking a generator using and_yield
enforcing expectations ordering
