+ # declarative-mocks
32
+
33
+ **Declare mock behavior as ordered expectations** - readable tests with explicit call patterns, return sequences, and side effects, built on `unittest.mock`.
34
+
35
+ ## Features
36
+
37
+ ---
38
+
39
+ - **Fluent expectations** - register calls with arguments (positional vs keyword aware), matchers (`Anything`, `ANY_ARGS` / `ANY_KWARGS`, …), and outcomes in order.
40
+ - **Return sequences** - chain multiple `.returns()` / `.raises()` / `.runs()` for successive matching calls.
41
+ - **Call-count controls** - one quantifier per `expect(...)` (`.once()`, `.times(n)`, `.between(min, max)`, `.never()`, and more).
42
+ - **Spec-backed mocks** - aligned with `Mock(spec=…)` semantics for safer, clearer tests.
43
+ - **Async without ceremony** - `expect()` on `async def` methods is the same DSL; `runs()` accepts both sync and async callables.
44
+ - **No extra runtime dependencies** - only the standard library at runtime.
45
+
46
+ ## Installation
47
+
48
+ ---
49
+
50
+ The first PyPI release is being prepared. Until then, install from source:
51
+
52
+ ```bash
53
+ poetry install
54
+ ```
55
+
56
+ The intended published command:
57
+
58
+ ```bash
59
+ pip install declarative-mocks
60
+ ```
61
+
62
+ ## The idea: before and after
63
+
64
+ ---
65
+
66
+ **Before - `unittest.mock`:** behavior is spread across `return_value`, `side_effect`, and ad hoc assertions; ordering and “what happens on the third call?” are easy to lose in a long test.
67
+
68
+ ```python
69
+ from unittest.mock import Mock
70
+
71
+ service = Mock(spec=MyService)
72
+ service.fetch_user.side_effect = [
73
+ {"id": 1, "name": "Ada"},
74
+ {"id": 1, "name": "Ada"},
75
+ ConnectionError("retry"),
76
+ ]
77
+ # … exercise code …
78
+ # Assertions about call order and counts are often manual and verbose.
79
+ ```
80
+
81
+ **After - `dmock`:** the same story is **declared** next to the mock: ordered expectations, explicit outcomes, and a single verification step.
82
+
83
+ ```python
84
+ from dmock import DeclarativeMock
85
+
86
+ service = DeclarativeMock(MyService)
87
+ service.expect("fetch_user").returns({"id": 1, "name": "Ada"}).returns({"id": 1, "name": "Ada"})
88
+ service.expect("fetch_user").raises(ConnectionError("retry"))
89
+ # … exercise code …
90
+ service.verify()
91
+ ```
92
+
93
+ ## How it compares
94
+
95
+ ---
96
+
97
+ The goals are the same as above: a strictly typed expectation DSL, a whitelist mock you construct, call order as a graph, and async wrapping every method in AsyncMock yourself. Against [mockito-python](https://github.com/kaste/mockito-python) and [flexmock](https://github.com/flexmock/flexmock) that looks like this.
98
+
99
+ ### Static analysis
100
+
101
+ That only matters if you type-check tests. Tests deserve the same quality bar as production code - maybe more, now that agents write so much of the suite.
102
+
103
+ `mockito-python` is strong on features, but the installed package has **no `py.typed` marker and no `.pyi` stubs**. Then `mypy tests` fails on `import mockito` (`missing library stubs or py.typed marker`) unless you set `ignore_missing_imports = True`. That is [issue #58](https://github.com/kaste/mockito-python/issues/58): the reporter was already ignoring the package; the maintainer called full typing “some significant work.” The ignore makes mypy succeed by treating mockito as `Any`, so `when` / `thenReturn` / `verify` themselves are not checked.
104
+
105
+ `flexmock` **is** typed (`py.typed` since 0.11.3), but it addresses methods **by string** (`should_receive("fetch_user")`), so the name is still not checked statically.
106
+
107
+ `dmock` is the only one of the three that is **strictly typed** (`py.typed`) **and** uses real attribute names on the mock (`mock.fetch_user(...)`), validated against the spec at construction/`expect()` time.
108
+
109
+ ### Shorter setup and verify
110
+
111
+ With dmock you write the call once. `verify()` does not repeat it:
112
+
113
+ ```python
114
+ mock.expect("fetch_user", 1).returns(user).once()
115
+ # … exercise code …
116
+ mock.verify()
117
+ ```
118
+
119
+ mockito splits **configuration and verification** into two expressions that repeat the call:
120
+
121
+ ```python
122
+ when(service).fetch_user(1).thenReturn(user)
123
+ # … exercise code …
124
+ verify(service, times=1).fetch_user(1)
125
+ ```
126
+
127
+ flexmock uses a four-link chain and a string method name:
128
+
129
+ ```python
130
+ flexmock(service).should_receive("fetch_user").with_args(1).and_return(user).once()
131
+ ```
132
+
133
+ ### A whitelist mock you construct
134
+
135
+ `DeclarativeMock(MyService)` is an object you **hold and pass in**. Unregistered calls fail immediately. Nothing on live modules or instances is rewritten.
136
+
137
+ mockito's usual `when(obj)` **does** rewrite methods on `obj` (module, class, or instance). The docs say you must `unstub()` afterwards, or use `with` / a pytest fixture, or stubs leak into later tests. `mock()` can create an injectable dummy instead, but it still sits in the same global registry.
138
+
139
+ flexmock also replaces attributes on existing objects (`should_receive`). Restore is automatic under pytest and unittest - there is no `unstub()` you call by hand.
140
+
141
+ ### Call order as a dependency graph
142
+
143
+ `.not_before(...)` and `in_order(...)` are checked **at the violating call**, not after the fact at `verify()`. Dependencies may cross mock instances. Cycles are rejected at configuration time with `ConfigurationError`.
144
+
145
+ ### Async without caveats
146
+
147
+ This argument holds **against flexmock**, not against mockito.
148
+
149
+ flexmock still has **no first-class async API** (no `async` / `await` / `coroutine` in the changelog or API reference). The documented workaround is to return an `AsyncMock` or `asyncio.Future` yourself.
150
+
151
+ mockito added first-class async/await stubbing in **2.0.0**. Their remaining caveat: introspection metadata such as `inspect.iscoroutinefunction` on stub wrappers is implemented **only on Python 3.12+**.
152
+
153
+ `dmock` installs a real nested `async def` dispatcher, so `inspect.iscoroutinefunction(mock.aprocess_order)` is true on **every supported Python** (3.11-3.14).
154
+
155
+ ## Usage examples
156
+
157
+ ---
158
+
159
+ ### 1. Nested return values (successive `.returns()`)
160
+
161
+ Each `.returns()` applies to the next matching call in order - handy for paginated or multi-step flows without a hand-built `side_effect` list.
162
+
163
+ ```python
164
+ from dmock import DeclarativeMock
165
+
166
+ api = DeclarativeMock(ApiClient)
167
+ api.expect("next_page").returns({"items": [1], "cursor": "a"})
168
+ api.expect("next_page").returns({"items": [2], "cursor": None})
169
+
170
+ # first call → first dict; second call → second dict
171
+ ```
172
+
173
+ ### 2. Outcome sequences with `.runs()` and `.returns()`
174
+
175
+ Chained outcomes apply to **successive matching calls**, not to a single call. `.runs(fn).returns(value)` means: first call runs `fn` (its return value is the result); second call returns `value`. A quantifier (`.once()`, `.at_least(n)`, …) applies to the **whole** `expect(...)` chain, not to the last outcome. A second quantifier on the same chain raises `ConfigurationError`.
176
+
177
+ If you omit a quantifier, the count is exactly the number of chained outcomes (minimum 1). `.runs(fn)` alone is **one** call; a second match is unexpected. The last outcome repeats only when the quantifier allows more calls than outcomes - for example `.runs(fn).at_least(1)` to run the callable on every matching call.
178
+
179
+ ```python
180
+ from dmock import DeclarativeMock
181
+
182
+ calc = DeclarativeMock(Calculator)
183
+ calc.expect("price", 100).runs(lambda x: x - 1).returns(99)
184
+
185
+ assert calc.price(100) == 99 # from the lambda
186
+ assert calc.price(100) == 99 # from .returns(99)
187
+ ```
188
+
189
+ ### 3. Strict argument matching (positional vs keyword)
190
+
191
+ `expect("method")` with **no** extra args means “called with no arguments” - not “anything.” Use matchers when you need to accept arbitrary values.
192
+
193
+ ```python
194
+ from dmock import Anything, DeclarativeMock
195
+
196
+ m = DeclarativeMock(Worker)
197
+
198
+ # any single positional arg
199
+ m.expect("run", Anything()).returns(0)
200
+
201
+ # keyword-specific expectation
202
+ m.expect("run", job_id=123).returns("queued")
203
+ ```
204
+
205
+ ### 4. Variadic arguments (`ANY_ARGS`, `ANY_KWARGS`)
206
+
207
+ To match **any** positional and keyword arguments (including none), use the dedicated wildcards instead of repeating `Anything()`.
208
+
209
+ ```python
210
+ from dmock import ANY_ARGS, ANY_KWARGS, DeclarativeMock
211
+
212
+ m = DeclarativeMock(Worker)
213
+ m.expect("run", ANY_ARGS, ANY_KWARGS).returns(0)
214
+ ```
215
+
216
+ ### 5. Async methods
217
+
218
+ `expect()` on an `async def` spec method needs no extra type. Await the call as usual. `runs()` accepts a sync callable or an `async def`; both work.
219
+
220
+ ```python
221
+ from dmock import Anything, DeclarativeMock
222
+
223
+ mock = DeclarativeMock(MyService)
224
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).returns("ok")
225
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(1) == "ok"
226
+
227
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).runs(lambda order_id: f"sync-{order_id}")
228
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(7) == "sync-7"
229
+
230
+ async def async_fn(order_id: int) -> str:
231
+ return f"async-{order_id}"
232
+
233
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).runs(async_fn)
234
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(9) == "async-9"
235
+ ```
236
+
237
+ For full DSL details and edge cases, see **`SPEC.md`** and **`REFERENCE.md`**.
238
+
239
+ ## Limitations & non-goals
240
+
241
+ ---
242
+
243
+ - **No signature binding.** `expect("method", …)` checks that `method` exists on the spec, not that the argument list matches the real signature.
244
+ - **No automatic `verify()`.** You call `verify()` yourself (a pytest hook is on the roadmap).
245
+ - **No spies and no patching.** The library does not wrap live objects, modules, or `sys.modules`. Construct a `DeclarativeMock` and pass it in.
246
+ - **Not thread-safe.** Concurrent use of one mock from multiple threads is out of scope.
247
+
248
+ ## Roadmap
249
+
250
+ ---
251
+
252
+ After 0.1.0, in no particular order:
253
+
254
+ - **pytest auto-`verify()`** - a plugin or fixture that runs `verify()` at the end of each test (gomock-style `Finish` on teardown), so you do not have to remember the call.
255
+ - **Per-outcome counts (maybe)** - repeat a `.returns()` / `.raises()` / `.runs()` without chaining it n times (today `.returns(1).returns(1).returns(1).returns(2)`).
256
+ - **Rich matchers** - more than `Anything` / `AnythingOfType` / `MatchedBy`: regex, numeric bounds, datetime (and ISO strings), containers, truthy/falsy, plus `and` / `or` / `not`. In the spirit of [anys](https://github.com/jwodder/anys).
257
+
258
+ Other ideas belong in GitHub Issues.

65
+ ```
66
+
67
+ ## How it compares
68
+
69
+ ---
70
+
71
+ The goals are the same as above: a strictly typed expectation DSL, a whitelist mock you construct, call order as a graph, and async wrapping every method in AsyncMock yourself. Against [mockito-python](https://github.com/kaste/mockito-python) and [flexmock](https://github.com/flexmock/flexmock) that looks like this.
72
+
73
+ ### Static analysis
74
+
75
+ That only matters if you type-check tests. Tests deserve the same quality bar as production code - maybe more, now that agents write so much of the suite.
76
+
77
+ `mockito-python` is strong on features, but the installed package has **no `py.typed` marker and no `.pyi` stubs**. Then `mypy tests` fails on `import mockito` (`missing library stubs or py.typed marker`) unless you set `ignore_missing_imports = True`. That is [issue #58](https://github.com/kaste/mockito-python/issues/58): the reporter was already ignoring the package; the maintainer called full typing “some significant work.” The ignore makes mypy succeed by treating mockito as `Any`, so `when` / `thenReturn` / `verify` themselves are not checked.
78
+
79
+ `flexmock` **is** typed (`py.typed` since 0.11.3), but it addresses methods **by string** (`should_receive("fetch_user")`), so the name is still not checked statically.
80
+
81
+ `dmock` is the only one of the three that is **strictly typed** (`py.typed`) **and** uses real attribute names on the mock (`mock.fetch_user(...)`), validated against the spec at construction/`expect()` time.
82
+
83
+ ### Shorter setup and verify
84
+
85
+ With dmock you write the call once. `verify()` does not repeat it:
86
+
87
+ ```python
88
+ mock.expect("fetch_user", 1).returns(user).once()
89
+ # … exercise code …
90
+ mock.verify()
91
+ ```
92
+
93
+ mockito splits **configuration and verification** into two expressions that repeat the call:
94
+
95
+ ```python
96
+ when(service).fetch_user(1).thenReturn(user)
97
+ # … exercise code …
98
+ verify(service, times=1).fetch_user(1)
99
+ ```
100
+
101
+ flexmock uses a four-link chain and a string method name:
102
+
103
+ ```python
104
+ flexmock(service).should_receive("fetch_user").with_args(1).and_return(user).once()
105
+ ```
106
+
107
+ ### A whitelist mock you construct
108
+
109
+ `DeclarativeMock(MyService)` is an object you **hold and pass in**. Unregistered calls fail immediately. Nothing on live modules or instances is rewritten.
110
+
111
+ mockito's usual `when(obj)` **does** rewrite methods on `obj` (module, class, or instance). The docs say you must `unstub()` afterwards, or use `with` / a pytest fixture, or stubs leak into later tests. `mock()` can create an injectable dummy instead, but it still sits in the same global registry.
112
+
113
+ flexmock also replaces attributes on existing objects (`should_receive`). Restore is automatic under pytest and unittest - there is no `unstub()` you call by hand.
114
+
115
+ ### Call order as a dependency graph

+ `.not_before(...)` and `in_order(...)` are checked **at the violating call**, not after the fact at `verify()`. Dependencies may cross mock instances. Cycles are rejected at configuration time with `ConfigurationError`.
118
+
119
+ ### Async without caveats
120
+
121
+ This argument holds **against flexmock**, not against mockito.
122
+
123
+ flexmock still has **no first-class async API** (no `async` / `await` / `coroutine` in the changelog or API reference). The documented workaround is to return an `AsyncMock` or `asyncio.Future` yourself.
124
+
125
+ mockito added first-class async/await stubbing in **2.0.0**. Their remaining caveat: introspection metadata such as `inspect.iscoroutinefunction` on stub wrappers is implemented **only on Python 3.12+**.
126
+
127
+ `dmock` installs a real nested `async def` dispatcher, so `inspect.iscoroutinefunction(mock.aprocess_order)` is true on **every supported Python** (3.11-3.14).
128
+
129
+ ## Usage examples
130
+
131
+ ---
132
+
133
+ ### 1. Nested return values (successive `.returns()`)
134
+
135
+ Each `.returns()` applies to the next matching call in order - handy for paginated or multi-step flows without a hand-built `side_effect` list.
136
+
137
+ ```python
138
+ from dmock import DeclarativeMock
139
+
140
+ api = DeclarativeMock(ApiClient)
141
+ api.expect("next_page").returns({"items": [1], "cursor": "a"})
142
+ api.expect("next_page").returns({"items": [2], "cursor": None})
143
+
144
+ # first call → first dict; second call → second dict
145
+ ```
146
+
147
+ ### 2. Outcome sequences with `.runs()` and `.returns()`
148
+
149
+ Chained outcomes apply to **successive matching calls**, not to a single call. `.runs(fn).returns(value)` means: first call runs `fn` (its return value is the result); second call returns `value`. A quantifier (`.once()`, `.at_least(n)`, …) applies to the **whole** `expect(...)` chain, not to the last outcome. A second quantifier on the same chain raises `ConfigurationError`.
150
+
151
+ If you omit a quantifier, the count is exactly the number of chained outcomes (minimum 1). `.runs(fn)` alone is **one** call; a second match is unexpected. The last outcome repeats only when the quantifier allows more calls than outcomes - for example `.runs(fn).at_least(1)` to run the callable on every matching call.
152
+
153
+ ```python
154
+ from dmock import DeclarativeMock
155
+
156
+ calc = DeclarativeMock(Calculator)
157
+ calc.expect("price", 100).runs(lambda x: x - 1).returns(99)
158
+
159
+ assert calc.price(100) == 99 # from the lambda
160
+ assert calc.price(100) == 99 # from .returns(99)
161
+ ```
162
+
163
+ ### 3. Strict argument matching (positional vs keyword)
164
+
165
+ `expect("method")` with **no** extra args means “called with no arguments” - not “anything.” Use matchers when you need to accept arbitrary values.
166
+
167
+ ```python
168
+ from dmock import Anything, DeclarativeMock
169
+
170
+ m = DeclarativeMock(Worker)
171
+
172
+ # any single positional arg
173
+ m.expect("run", Anything()).returns(0)
174
+
175
+ # keyword-specific expectation
176
+ m.expect("run", job_id=123).returns("queued")
177
+ ```
178
+
179
+ ### 4. Variadic arguments (`ANY_ARGS`, `ANY_KWARGS`)
180
+
181
+ To match **any** positional and keyword arguments (including none), use the dedicated wildcards instead of repeating `Anything()`.
182
+
183
+ ```python
184
+ from dmock import ANY_ARGS, ANY_KWARGS, DeclarativeMock
185
+
186
+ m = DeclarativeMock(Worker)
187
+ m.expect("run", ANY_ARGS, ANY_KWARGS).returns(0)
188
+ ```
189
+
190
+ ### 5. Async methods
191
+
192
+ `expect()` on an `async def` spec method needs no extra type. Await the call as usual. `runs()` accepts a sync callable or an `async def`; both work.
193
+
194
+ ```python
195
+ from dmock import Anything, DeclarativeMock
196
+
197
+ mock = DeclarativeMock(MyService)
198
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).returns("ok")
199
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(1) == "ok"
200
+
201
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).runs(lambda order_id: f"sync-{order_id}")
202
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(7) == "sync-7"
203
+
204
+ async def async_fn(order_id: int) -> str:
205
+ return f"async-{order_id}"
206
+
207
+ mock.expect("aprocess_order", Anything()).runs(async_fn)
208
+ assert await mock.aprocess_order(9) == "async-9"
209
+ ```
210
+
211
+ For full DSL details and edge cases, see **`SPEC.md`** and **`REFERENCE.md`**.
212
+
213
+ ## Limitations & non-goals
214
+
215
+ ---
216
+
217
+ - **No signature binding.** `expect("method", …)` checks that `method` exists on the spec, not that the argument list matches the real signature.
218
+ - **No automatic `verify()`.** You call `verify()` yourself (a pytest hook is on the roadmap).
219
+ - **No spies and no patching.** The library does not wrap live objects, modules, or `sys.modules`. Construct a `DeclarativeMock` and pass it in.
220
+ - **Not thread-safe.** Concurrent use of one mock from multiple threads is out of scope.
221
+
222
+ ## Roadmap
223
+
224
+ ---
225
+
226
+ After 0.1.0, in no particular order:
227
+
228
+ - **pytest auto-`verify()`** - a plugin or fixture that runs `verify()` at the end of each test (gomock-style `Finish` on teardown), so you do not have to remember the call.
229
+ - **Per-outcome counts (maybe)** - repeat a `.returns()` / `.raises()` / `.runs()` without chaining it n times (today `.returns(1).returns(1).returns(1).returns(2)`).
230
+ - **Rich matchers** - more than `Anything` / `AnythingOfType` / `MatchedBy`: regex, numeric bounds, datetime (and ISO strings), containers, truthy/falsy, plus `and` / `or` / `not`. In the spirit of [anys](https://github.com/jwodder/anys).
231
+
232
+ Other ideas belong in GitHub Issues.
