Imagine you have the following python code that you want to test: ```python import boto3 class MyModel: def __init__(self, name, value): self.name = name self.value = value def save(self): s3 = boto3.client("s3", region_name="us-east-1") s3.put_object(Bucket="mybucket", Key=self.name, Body=self.value) ``` Take a minute to think how you would have tested that in the past. Now see how you could test it with Moto: ```python import boto3 from moto import mock_aws from mymodule import MyModel @mock_aws def test_my_model_save(): conn = boto3.resource("s3", region_name="us-east-1") # We need to create the bucket since this is all in Moto's 'virtual' AWS account conn.create_bucket(Bucket="mybucket") model_instance = MyModel("steve", "is awesome") model_instance.save() body = conn.Object("mybucket", "steve").get()["Body"].read().decode("utf-8") assert body == "is awesome" ``` With the decorator wrapping the test, all the calls to s3 are automatically mocked out. The mock keeps track of the state of the buckets and keys.
