A nice write up on why doctest makes writing tests and documents easy. I’ll be doing a quickie presentation on doctest at December’s chiPy meeting
. Ian will be doing a quickie on py.test. Hopefully someone else will take up the difficult task of explaining the straight up unittest library. I’ve tried to use it, but get bogged down with it. Doctest is just my speed.

Ian and Phillip both pointed to a PyCon presentation on Doctest that I’ll most likely ‘borrow’ for the meat of presentation.
