Mocked value at method level not overriding class-level mock in unittest

Bug report

Bug description:

Description

I encountered an issue where mocking a value at the method level does not override the class-level mock in unit tests. Even though the method-level mock should take precedence, the value from the class-level mock is still being used.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a test class with a class-level mock using @mock.patch.
Add a method-level mock to one of the test methods to override the class-level mock.
Run the tests and observe that the class-level mock value is still used instead of the method-level mock.

Expected Behavior

The method-level mock should override the class-level mock, and the value set in the method-level mock should be used in the test.

Actual Behavior

The class-level mock value is used, and the method-level mock is ignored.

Sample code

import unittest
from unittest import mock

# Function to be mocked
def get_value():
    return "original"

# Class-level mock
@mock.patch('module.get_value', return_value='class-level')
class TestMock(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_class_level_mock(self, mock_get_value):
        # This should return 'class-level'
        result = get_value()
        self.assertEqual(result, 'class-level')

    @mock.patch('module.get_value', return_value='method-level')
    def test_method_level_mock(self, mock_get_value):
        # This should return 'method-level', but it returns 'class-level'
        result = get_value()
        self.assertEqual(result, 'method-level')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()

Comienza reproduciendo el ejemplo con unittest.mock.patch aplicado tanto a nivel de clase como de método, y después inspecciona los decoradores de unittest.mock.patch y su interacción con los métodos de unittest.TestCase. Confirma si se ignora el valor de retorno a nivel de método y añade o actualiza una prueba de regresión específica que muestre la sobrescritura esperada a nivel de método.
