This codemod fixes cases where hasattr is used to check if an object is a callable. You likely want to use callable instead. This is because using hasattr will return different results in some cases, such as when the class implements a __getattr__ method.
Our changes look something like this:
class Test:
pass
obj = Test()
- hasattr(obj, "__call__")
+ callable(obj)
