Changed the working of the iterative_task decorator. The decorator now needs the logic for the model which it fetches. This is much nicer then "fetching" it using import. Also order has been removed since it has no use when iterating over all entities when key is involved. Fields to filter can now dynamically be set by the function that is wrapped. Note that it will merge the filter with the task_default kwarg and it will only use the start_key if their is no key present in the context. Also note that task_default gathers all kwargs. I tried to do it otherwise (with default kwargs) but I couldn't get it to work. Feel free to improve :).

Mox is an open source mock object framework for Python, inspired by
the Java library EasyMock.

To install:

  $ python setup.py install

To run Mox's internal tests:

  $ python mox_test.py

Basic usage:

  import unittest
  import mox

  class PersonTest(mox.MoxTestBase):

    def testUsingMox(self):
      # Create a mock Person
      mock_person = self.mox.CreateMock(Person)

      test_person = ...
      test_primary_key = ...
      unknown_person = ...

      # Expect InsertPerson to be called with test_person; return
      # test_primary_key at that point
      mock_person.InsertPerson(test_person).AndReturn(test_primary_key)

      # Raise an exception when this is called
      mock_person.DeletePerson(unknown_person).AndRaise(UnknownPersonError())

      # Switch from record mode to replay mode
      self.mox.ReplayAll()

      # Run the test
      ret_pk = mock_person.InsertPerson(test_person)
      self.assertEquals(test_primary_key, ret_pk)
      self.assertRaises(UnknownPersonError, mock_person, unknown_person)
