Fixtures

Fixtures provide a way to create reusable state and helper methods in test cases.

To use the requests-mock fixture your tests need to have a dependency on the fixtures library. This can be optionally installed when you install requests-mock by doing:

pip install requests-mock[fixture]

The fixture mocks the :pyrequests.Session.get_adapter method so that all requests will be served by the mock adapter.

The fixture provides the same interfaces as the adapter.

>>> import requests >>> from requests_mock.contrib import fixture >>> import testtools

>>> class MyTestCase(testtools.TestCase): ... ... TEST_URL = 'http://www.google.com' ... ... def setUp(self): ... super(MyTestCase, self).setUp() ... self.requests_mock = self.useFixture(fixture.Fixture()) ... self.requests_mock.register_uri('GET', self.TEST_URL, text='respA') ... ... def test_method(self): ... self.requests_mock.register_uri('POST', self.TEST_URL, text='respB') ... resp = requests.get(self.TEST_URL) ... self.assertEqual('respA', resp.text) ... self.assertEqual(self.TEST_URL, self.requests_mock.last_request.url) ...
