STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org> added the comment:
I'm not sure if unittest.mock code to import the module is reliable: see
bpo-39551. It imports "multiprocessing", use getattr() to get
multiprocessing.shared_memory. If getattr() fails with AttributeError, it tries
to import "mulitprocessing.shared_memory", and then tries again the same
getattr() on the previously imported "multiprocessing" module.
I'm curious if this change works around the issue:
