"""Look for closures that are never called in tests.
A recurring pattern when using multiple mocks is to create a closure
decorated with mocks like:
def test_thing(self):
@mock.patch.object(self.compute, 'foo')
@mock.patch.object(self.compute, 'bar')
def _do_test(mock_bar, mock_foo):
# Test things
_do_test()
However it is easy to leave off the _do_test() and have the test pass
because nothing runs. This check looks for methods defined within a test
method and ensures that there is a reference to them. Only methods defined
one level deep are checked. Something like:
def test_thing(self):
class FakeThing:
def foo(self):
would not ensure that foo is referenced.
