How to use it

The starting point to understand how to use Mocket is the following example:

• https://github.com/mindflayer/mocketoy

Next step, you are invited to have a look at both the implementation of the two mocks we provide:

• HTTP mock - https://github.com/mindflayer/python-mocket/blob/master/mocket/mockhttp.py

• Redis mock - https://github.com/mindflayer/python-mocket/blob/master/mocket/mockredis.py

Please also have a look at the huge test suite:

• Tests module at https://github.com/mindflayer/python-mocket/tree/master/tests

Installation

Using pip:

$ pip install mocket

Issues

When opening an Issue, please add few lines of code as failing test, or -better- open its relative Pull request adding this test to our test suite.

Quick example

Let’s create a new virtualenv with all we need:

$ virtualenv example
$ source example/bin/activate
$ pip install pytest requests mocket

As second step, we create an example.py file as the following one:

import json

from mocket.mocket import mocketize
from mocket.mockhttp import Entry
import requests
import pytest


@pytest.fixture
def response():
    return {
        "integer": 1,
        "string": "asd",
        "boolean": False,
    }


@mocketize
def test_json(response):
    url_to_mock = 'https://testme.org/json'

    Entry.single_register(
        Entry.GET,
        url_to_mock,
        body=json.dumps(response),
        headers={'content-type': 'application/json'}
    )

    mocked_response = requests.get(url_to_mock).json()

    assert response == mocked_response

Let’s fire our example test:

$ py.test example.py

Works well with others

Using Mocket as pook engine:

$ pip install mocket[pook]

Example:

import pook
from mocket.plugins.pook_mock_engine import MocketEngine

pook.activate()

pook.set_mock_engine(MocketEngine)

url = 'http://twitter.com/api/1/foobar'
status = 404
response_json = {'error': 'foo'}

mock = pook.get(
    url,
    headers={'content-type': 'application/json'},
    reply=status,
    response_json=response_json,
)
mock.persist()

requests.get(url)
assert mock.calls == 1

resp = requests.get(url)
assert resp.status_code == status
assert resp.json() == response_json
assert mock.calls == 2

pook.disable()
