Python单元测试:如何对包含数据库操作的模块进行单元测试？

Question

我使用pymysql客户端库连接到真正的数据库.我在模块的功能,在这里我在python这个功能连接到使用pymysql数据库,并只做数据库插入operations.How单元测试没有击中真实的数据库？

import pymysql

def connectDB(self):

# Connect to the database
connection = pymysql.connect(host='localhost',
                             user='user',
                             password='passwd',
                             db='db')

try:
    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        # Create a new record
        sql = "INSERT INTO `users` (`email`, `password`) VALUES (%s, %s)"
        cursor.execute(sql, ('newuser@some.com', 'newpassword'))


    connection.commit()

我的python版本是2.7.

你可以patch像这样使用:

from unittest.mock import patch, MagicMock

@patch('mypackage.mymodule.pymysql')
def test(self, mock_sql):
    self.assertIs(mypackage.mymodule.pymysql, mock_sql)

    conn = Mock()
    mock_sql.connect.return_value = conn

    cursor      = MagicMock()
    mock_result = MagicMock()

    cursor.__enter__.return_value = mock_result
    cursor.__exit___              = MagicMock()

    conn.cursor.return_value = cursor

    connectDB()

    mock_sql.connect.assert_called_with(host='localhost',
                                        user='user',
                                        password='passwd',
                                        db='db')

    mock_result.execute.assert_called_with("sql request", ("user", "pass"))
