VCR, as far as i know only works for HTTP. It is very easy to use, and unfortunately i didn't find a match for it in python. It seems people are more concerned about building "My new cool ruby-like test runner".<br>
<br>
The coding strategy to make VCR was to monkeypatch the Http Libraries, like the basic Net::Http, since there are a lot of http clients use it under the hood. And for the ones who don't, the author wrote an adapter for the most popular ones[1].<br>
<br>
I think similar approach can be used with python.<br>
