mocker.stub() is a coroutine function

[AstraLuma]

def test_icf_sync(mocker):
    func = mocker.stub('func')
    assert not inspect.iscoroutinefunction(func)


def test_icf_async(mocker):
    func = mocker.async_stub('func')
    assert inspect.iscoroutinefunction(func)

Expected: mocker.stub() returns something that doesn't resemble a coroutine.

Observed: mocker.stub() is detected as a coroutine.

Hi @AstraLuma,

mocker.stub is just a thin wrapper which calls unittest.mock.MagicMock:

pytest-mock/src/pytest_mock/plugin.py

Lines 182 to 185 in d5243b0

	return cast(
	unittest.mock.MagicMock,
	self.mock_module.MagicMock(spec=lambda *args, **kwargs: None, name=name),
	)

Can you replace your mocker.stub call by unittest.mock.MagicMock and see if you have the same behavior? If you do then the behavior is expected, and you can raise the question upstream to see if this is intended by unittest.mock or it should behave differently.
