谁能告诉我为什么这行不通?

>>> import mock
>>> @mock.patch('datetime.date.today')
... def today(cls):
...  return date(2010, 1, 1)
...
>>> from datetime import date
>>> date.today()
datetime.date(2010, 12, 19)

也许有人能提出一个更好的办法?


当前回答

也许您可以使用自己的“today()”方法,在需要的地方打补丁。使用utcnow()的示例可以在这里找到:https://bitbucket.org/k_bx/blog/src/tip/source/en_posts/2012-07-13-double-call-hack.rst?at=default

我想我来晚了一点,但我认为这里的主要问题是您直接修补datetime.date.today,根据文档,这是错误的。

例如,您应该修补在测试函数所在的文件中导入的引用。

假设你有一个functions.py文件,其中包含以下内容:

import datetime

def get_today():
    return datetime.date.today()

然后,在你的测试中,你应该有这样的东西

import datetime
import unittest

from functions import get_today
from mock import patch, Mock

class GetTodayTest(unittest.TestCase):

    @patch('functions.datetime')
    def test_get_today(self, datetime_mock):
        datetime_mock.date.today = Mock(return_value=datetime.strptime('Jun 1 2005', '%b %d %Y'))
        value = get_today()
        # then assert your thing...

希望这能对你有所帮助。

我使用自定义装饰器实现了@user3016183方法:

def changeNow(func, newNow = datetime(2015, 11, 23, 12, 00, 00)):
    """decorator used to change datetime.datetime.now() in the tested function."""
    def retfunc(self):                             
        with mock.patch('mymodule.datetime') as mock_date:                         
            mock_date.now.return_value = newNow
            mock_date.side_effect = lambda *args, **kw: datetime(*args, **kw)
            func(self)
    return retfunc

我想这也许有一天能帮到别人…

我通过将datetime导入为realdatetime并将我在模拟中需要的方法替换为实际方法来完成这项工作:

import datetime as realdatetime

@mock.patch('datetime')
def test_method(self, mock_datetime):
    mock_datetime.today = realdatetime.today
    mock_datetime.now.return_value = realdatetime.datetime(2019, 8, 23, 14, 34, 8, 0)

对我来说,最好的方法是结合@Daniel G和@frx08的解决方案:

class Test_mock_date:
    class NewDate(datetime.datetime):
        @classmethod
        def now(cls, tz=None):
            return cls(2021, 5, 12)

    def test_mock_date(self):
        with patch('datetime.datetime', new = self.NewDate):
            assert datetime.datetime.now() == datetime.datetime(2021, 5, 12, 0, 0)

对于那些在测试类中使用补丁程序的人,下面是我如何成功地修补datetime功能:

from datetime import datetime
import unittest
from unittest.mock import Mock, patch

# Replace with the proper path to the module you would
# like datetime to be mocked
from path.to.my_module

class MyTestCases(unittest.TestCase):

    def setUp(self):
        """execute on class instantiation"""
        # Record both times at the same moment
        self.dt_now, self.dt_utcnow = datetime.now(), datetime.utcnow()

        # After retrieving real (or hardcoded datetime values), 
        # proceed to mock them in desired module
        self.patch_datetime_functions()


    def patch_datetime_functions(self) -> None:
        """
        Patch datetime.now() and datetime.utcnow() to prevent issues when
        comparing expected dates
        """

        # Create a patcher
        self.patcher_dt = patch(
            'path.to.my_module'
        )

        # Start but make sure cleanup always occurs
        self.patcher_dt.start()
        self.addCleanup(self.patcher_dt.stop)

        # Perform the actual patch – use lambdas as mock functions
        datetime_mock = Mock(wraps=datetime)
        datetime_mock.now.return_value = self.dt_now
        datetime_mock.utcnow.return_value = self.dt_utcnow

        my_module.datetime = datetime_mock


    # Here's what it will look like when testing:
    def some_test(self):
        curr_dt = self.dt_now
        returned_dt = my_module.datetime.utcnow()
        
        # Compare the dates
        self.assertEqual(curr_dt, returned_dt,
            'Datetime values should be equal'
        )
