invalid-mock-access (PGH005)

Derived from the pygrep-hooks linter.

What it does

Checks for common mistakes when using mock objects.

Why is this bad?

The mock module exposes an assertion API that can be used to verify that mock objects undergo expected interactions. This rule checks for common mistakes when using this API.

For example, it checks for mock attribute accesses that should be replaced with mock method calls.

Example

my_mock.assert_called

Use instead:

my_mock.assert_called()
