Error: moto dynamodb not working

Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
This error message indicates an issue with the usage of a moto
, a library that allows you to mock the AWS services in your tests. This can happen if moto is not installed correctly, if the version of moto is not compatible with the version of the boto3 library, or if there is an issue with the code that is using moto.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
To solve this error, check that moto is correctly installed by running the command pip show moto
and ensure that the version of moto is compatible with the version of boto3 you are using.
