根因分析

unittest.mock.patch 针对的是名称被查找的位置，而非定义位置。若 services.py 使用 `import requests` 并调用 `requests.get`，应 patch 'myapp.services.requests.get'；若使用 `from requests import get`，则应 patch 'myapp.services.get'。

English

unittest.mock.patch targets the name where it is looked up, not where it is defined. If services.py does `import requests` and calls `requests.get`, patch 'myapp.services.requests.get'. If it does `from requests import get`, patch 'myapp.services.get'.

解决方案

  1. 95% 成功率 
    Identify the binding style in the SUT and patch accordingly:
  # if SUT: import requests
  @patch('myapp.services.requests')
  def test_get(mock_req): ...
  # if SUT: from requests import get
  @patch('myapp.services.get')
  def test_get(mock_get): ...
  2. 90% 成功率 
    Use pytest-mock's mocker fixture which resolves the same lookup semantics:
  def test_get(mocker):
      mocker.patch('myapp.services.requests.get')

无效尝试

常见但无效的做法:

  1. 75% 失败

    Patches the global requests module, not the reference the SUT uses; the real network call still fires.

  2. 80% 失败

    Creates a separate binding; the SUT's binding remains untouched.
