Python unit test mock, get mocked function’s input arguments

You can use call_args or call_args_list as well.

A quick example would look like:

import mock
import unittest

class TestExample(unittest.TestCase):

    @mock.patch('lib.event.Event')
    def test_example1(self, event_mocked):
        args, kwargs = event_mocked.call_args
        args = event_mocked.call_args.args  # alternatively 
        self.assertEqual(args, ['metadata_example', 'action_example'])

I just quickly written this example for somebody who might need it – I have not actually tested this so there might be minor bugs.
