[TIP] strange mock behaviour

I'm having a strange issue with Mock (version 1.0.1) that I've never
noticed before

So I have a patch in this form:
    @patch('app.notifications.create_notification')
    def test_challenge_ended_going_in_review(self, fake_create):


but I get an error from that same test complaining about:
AttributeError: <module 'app.handlers.notifications' from
'/home/andrea/wazoku/wazoku/wazoku-api/api/app/handlers/notifications/__init__.pyc'>
does not have the attribute 'create_notification'

but I can't figure how and why it adds the "handlers" in between..
app/notifications.py is a perfectly normal module, what could be messing up
things?

Thanks
