--------------------------------------

             Summary: use unittest.mock on Python 3.3+ to satisfy mock depency for testing  
                 Key: LIBCLOUD-530
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-530
             Project: Libcloud
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: Python 3.3+ is effected on all platforms
here: Mac OS X and Macports
            Reporter: Peter Danecek
            Priority: Minor


Python 3.3+ provides mock as part of the standard library in the `unittest.mock` namespace: http://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.mock.html

libcloud should be able to use this for testing and to handle the difference with respect to other Python version. This would avoid the necessity to install mock as a separate, redundant packages on Python 3.3+. This packages in not always available through package managers.
