**bigfoot replaces `unittest.mock` with full-certainty test mocking for Python.**

Drop-in mocking that catches the bugs `unittest.mock` silently ignores. bigfoot intercepts every external call your code makes and forces your tests to account for all of them. It ships with plugins for HTTP, subprocess, database, socket, Redis, SMTP, WebSocket, logging, and more. It enforces three guarantees that `unittest.mock` and most mocking libraries leave silent:



1. **Every call must be pre-authorized.** Code makes a call with no registered mock? `UnmockedInteractionError`, immediately.
2. **Every recorded interaction must be explicitly asserted.** Forget to assert an interaction? `UnassertedInteractionsError` at teardown.
3. **Every registered mock must actually be triggered.** Register a mock that never fires? `UnusedMocksError` at teardown.



## Why Not unittest.mock?

`unittest.mock` is designed for flexibility. bigfoot is designed for correctness. Here is what `unittest.mock` silently allows that bigfoot catches:

| Scenario | unittest.mock | bigfoot |
|----------|---------------|---------|
| Mocked function is never called | Test passes silently | `UnusedMocksError` at teardown |
| Mocked function called with wrong args | `assert_called_with` only if you remember to add it | Recorded and required to be asserted with exact args |
| Real HTTP/DB/Redis call leaks through | Nothing happens (call goes to production) | `UnmockedInteractionError` immediately |
| You forget to assert a call happened | Test passes silently | `UnassertedInteractionsError` at teardown |
| Mock returns wrong type, caller doesn't notice | `MagicMock` auto-generates attributes forever | Not applicable; you declare explicit return values |
| Production code adds a new external call | Existing tests still pass, new call is untested | `UnmockedInteractionError` forces you to handle it |

**The core problem:** `unittest.mock` makes it your responsibility to remember what to assert. bigfoot makes it impossible to forget.

```python
# unittest.mock -- this test passes, but proves nothing
from unittest.mock import patch

@patch("myapp.payments.httpx.post")
def test_payment(mock_post):
    mock_post.return_value.json.return_value = {"id": "ch_123"}
    create_charge(5000)
    # Forgot assert_called_with? Test passes.
    # Called with wrong amount? Test passes.
    # Added a second HTTP call? Test passes.

# bigfoot -- every interaction is accounted for
def test_payment():
    bigfoot.http.mock_response("POST", "https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
                               json={"id": "ch_123"}, status=200)

    with bigfoot:
        result = create_charge(5000)

    # MUST assert this or test fails at teardown
    bigfoot.http.assert_request(
        "POST", "https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
        headers=IsInstance(dict), body='{"amount": 5000}',
    ).assert_response(200, IsInstance(dict), '{"id": "ch_123"}')
    assert result["id"] == "ch_123"
```



**Firewall mode** (enabled by default) goes further: bigfoot installs interceptors at test session startup, catching any real I/O call that happens outside a sandbox. In the default `"warn"` level, accidental calls emit a `GuardedCallWarning` and proceed normally, so existing test suites keep working while you see exactly which calls are unguarded. Set `guard = "error"` in `[tool.bigfoot]` for strict enforcement that raises `GuardedCallError` on every unguarded call. Use `bigfoot.allow("dns", "socket")` or `@pytest.mark.allow(...)` to selectively permit real calls. Use `M()` pattern objects for granular matching (e.g., `M(protocol="http", host="*.example.com")`). Use `bigfoot.restrict(...)` to set a ceiling that inner blocks cannot widen. Configure project-wide rules in `[tool.bigfoot.firewall]` TOML sections.

A plugin system makes it straightforward to intercept any service and enforce all three guarantees.

```bash
pip install bigfoot[all]
```

## Quick Start

```python
import bigfoot
from dirty_equals import IsInstance

def create_charge(amount):
    """Production code -- calls Stripe via httpx internally."""
    import httpx
    response = httpx.post("https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
                          json={"amount": amount})
    return response.json()

def test_payment_flow():
    bigfoot.http.mock_response("POST", "https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
                               json={"id": "ch_123"}, status=200)

    with bigfoot:
        result = create_charge(5000)

    bigfoot.http.assert_request(
        "POST", "https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
        headers=IsInstance(dict), body='{"amount": 5000}',
    ).assert_response(200, IsInstance(dict), '{"id": "ch_123"}')
    assert result["id"] == "ch_123"
```

If you forget the `assert_request()` call, bigfoot fails the test at teardown:

```
E   bigfoot._errors.UnassertedInteractionsError: 1 interaction was not asserted.
E
E       http.assert_request(
E           "POST",
E           "https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges",
E           headers={'host': 'api.stripe.com', ...},
E           body='{"amount":5000}',
E           require_response=True,
E       ).assert_response(
E           status=200,
E           headers={'content-type': 'application/json'},
E           body='{"id": "ch_123"}',
E       )
E       # ^ [sequence=0] [HttpPlugin] POST https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges (status=200)
```

Every field is shown. Every value is real. Copy, paste, done.

## How It Works

1. **Register mocks** before the sandbox (`mock_response`, `mock_run`, `returns`, etc.)
2. **Open the sandbox** with `with bigfoot:` (or `async with bigfoot:`)
3. **Code runs normally** inside the sandbox, but external calls are intercepted and recorded
4. **Assert interactions** after the sandbox closes, in order
5. **`verify_all()`** runs automatically at test teardown via the pytest plugin

No fixture injection required. Install bigfoot, `import bigfoot`, and go.



## Coming from unittest.mock

### Concepts mapping

| unittest.mock | bigfoot equivalent | Notes |
|---------------|-------------------|-------|
| `@patch("module.Class")` | `bigfoot.mock("module:Class")` | Colon-separated import path |
| `@patch.object(obj, "attr")` | `bigfoot.mock.object(obj, "attr")` | Same idea, stricter enforcement |
| `MagicMock()` | Plugin-specific mocks | `mock_response`, `mock_run`, `mock_command`, etc. |
| `mock.return_value = X` | `.returns(X)` | Explicit, typed return values |
| `mock.side_effect = Exception` | `mock_error(..., raises=Exception)` | Explicit error mocking |
| `mock.assert_called_with(...)` | `plugin.assert_request(...)` / `spy.assert_call(...)` | Required, not optional |
| `mock.assert_not_called()` | Not needed | If it was not registered, it cannot be called |
| `call_args_list` | Interaction log | Automatic, exhaustive, shown on failure |

### Migration by example

**Patching an HTTP call**

```python
# BEFORE: unittest.mock
from unittest.mock import patch, MagicMock

@patch("myapp.client.requests.get")
def test_fetch_user(mock_get):
    mock_get.return_value = MagicMock(
        status_code=200,
        json=MagicMock(return_value={"name": "Alice"}),
    )
    user = fetch_user(42)
    mock_get.assert_called_once_with("https://api.example.com/users/42")
    assert user["name"] == "Alice"

# AFTER: bigfoot
from dirty_equals import IsInstance

def test_fetch_user():
    bigfoot.http.mock_response(
        "GET", "https://api.example.com/users/42",
        json={"name": "Alice"}, status=200,
    )
    with bigfoot:
        user = fetch_user(42)

    bigfoot.http.assert_request(
        "GET", "https://api.example.com/users/42",
        headers=IsInstance(dict), body=None,
    ).assert_response(200, IsInstance(dict), '{"name": "Alice"}')
    assert user["name"] == "Alice"
```

**Patching a subprocess call**

```python
# BEFORE: unittest.mock
from unittest.mock import patch

@patch("myapp.deploy.subprocess.run")
def test_deploy(mock_run):
    mock_run.return_value.returncode = 0
    mock_run.return_value.stdout = "deployed"
    result = deploy("prod")
    mock_run.assert_called_once()

# AFTER: bigfoot
def test_deploy():
    bigfoot.subprocess_mock.mock_run(
        ["kubectl", "apply", "-f", "prod.yaml"],
        returncode=0, stdout="deployed",
    )
    with bigfoot:
        result = deploy("prod")

    bigfoot.subprocess_mock.assert_run(
        ["kubectl", "apply", "-f", "prod.yaml"],
        returncode=0, stdout="deployed",
    )
```

**Patching an arbitrary object**

```python
# BEFORE: unittest.mock
from unittest.mock import patch

@patch("myapp.services.cache")
def test_cached_lookup(mock_cache):
    mock_cache.get.return_value = "cached_value"
    result = lookup("key")
    mock_cache.get.assert_called_once_with("key")

# AFTER: bigfoot
def test_cached_lookup():
    cache_mock = bigfoot.mock("myapp.services:cache")
    cache_mock.get.returns("cached_value")

    with bigfoot:
        result = lookup("key")

    cache_mock.get.assert_call(args=("key",), kwargs={}, returned="cached_value")
```

### Incremental adoption

You do not have to migrate your entire test suite at once. bigfoot and `unittest.mock` can coexist in the same project:

1. **Start with guard mode.** Install bigfoot and run your suite. Guard mode (default `"warn"`) will show you every real I/O call across all tests without breaking anything.
2. **Migrate test by test.** Pick tests that touch HTTP, subprocess, or database calls first -- these benefit most from bigfoot's strict enforcement.
3. **Escalate to strict guard mode.** Once coverage is high, set `guard = "error"` in `pyproject.toml` to catch any remaining leaks.

## Advanced Features

**Concurrent assertions** -- relax FIFO ordering for parallel requests:

```python
with bigfoot.in_any_order():
    bigfoot.http.assert_request(method="GET", url=".../a", headers=IsInstance(dict), body=None,
                                require_response=False)
    bigfoot.http.assert_request(method="GET", url=".../b", headers=IsInstance(dict), body=None,
                                require_response=False)
```

**Mock / spy** -- composable mocks with import-site patching:

```python
# Mock a module-level attribute
cache_mock = bigfoot.mock("myapp.services:cache")
cache_mock.get.returns("cached_value")

# Mock an attribute on a specific object
mock = bigfoot.mock.object(my_module, "service")

# Spy on real implementation
spy = bigfoot.spy("myapp.services:cache")
```

**Context managers** -- sandbox activates all mocks and enforces assertions:

```python
# Sandbox activates all mocks, enforces assertions
with bigfoot.sandbox():
    result = code_under_test()

# Individual activation (no assertion enforcement)
with cache_mock:
    setup_code()
```

**Error mocking** -- mock exceptions and assert error interactions:

```python
# Mock errors
bigfoot.http.mock_error("GET", url, raises=httpx.ConnectError("refused"))

# Assert errors
bigfoot.http.assert_request("GET", url, headers=..., body="",
                            raised=IsInstance(httpx.ConnectError))
```

**Spy observability** -- assert return values and raised exceptions:

```python
spy.assert_call(args=("key",), kwargs={}, returned="value")
spy.assert_call(args=("bad",), kwargs={}, raised=IsInstance(KeyError))
```

**Pass-through** -- delegate to the real service, still record and require assertion:

```python
bigfoot.http.pass_through("GET", url)
```

**Configuration** via `pyproject.toml`:

```toml
[tool.bigfoot.http]
require_response = true  # This is the default; set to false to opt out
```

Per-call arguments override project-level settings. See the [configuration guide](https://axiomantic.github.io/bigfoot/guides/configuration/).
