Talk 2: Unit Testing with Mocks
by Manikandan
Duration: 30min

This talk will show how to use 'unittest.mock' to simplify unittesting
of modules that have complex behaviors like sending/receiving SMS,
email, sending/receiving data through serial port, etc.

The 'unittest.mock' module in the Python standard library allows
programmers to replace parts of the system under test with mock
objects. The programmer can configure the mock object to return
specific values, when a method is invoked. The programmer can also
assert if the mock object was invoked in a certain way.

If you would like to give a lightning talk, just come prepared, we
will be able to accommodate you.

If you are new to Python, the tutorial at
http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/python/ will give you a quick
overview of what Python is all about.

Regards,
Vijay
