As an added bonus you no longer need to keep a reference to the `patcher`
object.
-In fact `start` and `stop` are just aliases for the context manager
-`__enter__` and `__exit__` methods.
+It is also possible to stop all patches which have been started by using
+`patch.stopall`.
+
+.. function:: patch.stopall

+ Stop all active patches.
