Odoo 13: Is it possible to use unittest.mock in odoo?

Question

I would like to import the mock-library in odoo testing environment. I use
import unittest.mock
but when using @mock.patch I get a NameError: name 'mock' is not defined.
What's the problem?

yes, you can use it. unittest is part of a standard python.

I think your import statement is incorrect
​
try:
from unittest.mock import patch
except ImportError:
from mock import patch
use @patch
