Do you need to test some pieces of code interacting with AWS? In this article, I’m going to introduce the Moto library whose aim is to mock out AWS services. That means you won’t have to deploy anything in the AWS cloud to test your code.
In the first part, we’ll create a simple piece of code interacting with the Elastic Compute (EC2) service. We’ll examine the different ways of mocking provided by Moto. This will give you an overview of its possibilities.
Next, we’ll couple the Moto library and pytest framework to have clean and scalable unit tests.
