unittest.mock.patch.multiple()

patch.multiple(target, spec=None, create=False, spec_set=None, autospec=None, new_callable=None, **kwargs)

Perform multiple patches in a single call. It takes the object to be patched (either as an object or a string to fetch the object by importing) and keyword arguments for the patches:

with patch.multiple(settings, FIRST_PATCH='one', SECOND_PATCH='two'):
    ...

Use DEFAULT as the value if you want patch.multiple() to create mocks for you. In this case the created mocks are passed into a decorated function by keyword, and a dictionary is returned when patch.multiple() is used as a context manager.

patch.multiple() can be used as a decorator, class decorator or a context manager. The arguments spec, spec_set, create, autospec and new_callable have the same meaning as for patch(). These arguments will be applied to all patches done by patch.multiple().

When used as a class decorator patch.multiple() honours patch.TEST_PREFIX for choosing which methods to wrap.
