An iterator set as a mock side_effect should be able to include mock.DEFAULT to use the standard return value.


    def test_side_effect_iterator_default(self):
        mock = Mock(return_value=2)
        mock.side_effect = [1, DEFAULT]
        result = mock(), mock()
        self.assertEqual(result, (1, 2))

There's a straightforward patch here, it just needs applying:
