Message339964
I think I got to this. See issue12370 (Use of super overwrites use of __class__ in class namespace) . msg138712 suggests a workaround to alias super at the module level. unittest.mock has the below line and NonCallableMock has __class__ defined as a property which is not set when set trace is used since the linked commit in 3.7.2 uses super() is somehow executed by settrace since it's in __delattr__ and not in a code path executed by user code?
Looking at the unittest.mock code super is not used anywhere but _safe_super is used which I hope is for this reason. So this is not a case with MagicMock only but rather a case with anything that inherits from NonCallableMock i.e. Mock, MagicMock etc. This is not a problem with import being made before the trace is set as you mentioned so set trace does something that exposes this issue

# Workaround for issue #12370
# Without this, the __class__ properties wouldn't be set correctly
_safe_super = super
Sample program in issue12370. Add set trace SuperClass with using super() fails and passes without set trace for super(). Whereas SafeSuperClass that uses _safe_super (module level alias to super) passes both cases irrespective of usage of set trace. Nick coughlan added a message so that unittest.mock should use _safe_super in https://bugs.python.org/issue12370#msg161704
import sys
_safe_super = super
def trace(frame, event, arg):
return trace
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
sys.settrace(trace)
class SuperClass(object):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
@property
def __class__(self):
return int
class SafeSuperClass(object):
def __init__(self):
_safe_super(SafeSuperClass, self).__init__()
@property
def __class__(self):
return int
print(isinstance(SuperClass(), int))
print(isinstance(SafeSuperClass(), int))
Running above code with trace and without trace
➜ cpython git:(master) ✗ ./python.exe /tmp/buz.py
True
True
➜ cpython git:(master) ✗ ./python.exe /tmp/buz.py 1
False
True
There is a test for the above in Lib/test/test_super.py at https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/4c409beb4c360a73d054f37807d3daad58d1b567/Lib/test/test_super.py#L87
Add a trace as below in test_super.py at the top and the test case fails
import sys
def trace(frame, event, arg):
return trace
sys.settrace(trace)
➜ cpython git:(master) ✗ ./python.exe Lib/test/test_super.py

The patch for this issue would be to use _safe_super instead of super() or to fallback to object() in the previous case that doesn't seemed to have suffered from this case. I can try to make a PR with tests. Added Michael for confirmation.
