How to mock boto3 S3 upload file wrapper in Python
Wrap an S3 put_object call in a testable function that returns metadata, and mock boto3 to verify the upload without touching AWS.
import boto3
import io
def upload_file_to_s3(file_obj, bucket, key, object_metadata=None):
"""Upload a file-like object to S3 and return a metadata dict."""
s3 = boto3.client("s3")
content = file_obj.read()
s3.put_object(
Bucket=bucket,
Key=key,
Body=content,
