Practices¶

With unittest framework¶

import unittest
import sinon

class GlobalCls(object):
    def clsFunc(self):
        return "A"

def localFunc():
    return "B"

class TestExample(unittest.TestCase):

    def setUp(self):
        global g
        g = sinon.init(globals())

    @sinon.test
    def test001(self):
        import os
        spy_system = sinon.spy(os, "system")
        os.system("ls")
        self.assertTrue(spy_system.called)

    @sinon.test
    def test002(self):
        spy_global_cls = sinon.spy(GlobalCls, "clsFunc")
        gc = GlobalCls()
        gc.clsFunc()
        self.assertTrue(spy_global_cls.called)

    @sinon.test
    def test003(self):
        stub_local_func = sinon.stub(localFunc)
        stub_local_func.returns("A")
        self.assertEqual(g.localFunc(), "A")

Above python2.7, it could be executed by commands below:

$ python -m unittest [test_file_name]
