.. caution::

If an :exc:`AttributeError` is raised by :class:`PropertyMock`,
it will be interpreted as a missing descriptor and
:meth:`~object.__getattr__` will be called on the parent mock::

>>> m = MagicMock()
>>> no_attribute = PropertyMock(side_effect=AttributeError)
>>> type(m).my_property = no_attribute
>>> m.my_property
<MagicMock name='mock.my_property' id='140165240345424'>

See :meth:`~object.__getattr__` for details.
