Module doctest_driver

A driver for testing interactive python examples in text files and docstrings. This doctest driver performs three functions:

checking: Runs the interactive examples, and reports any examples whose actual output does not match their expected output.

debugging: Runs the interactive examples, and enters the debugger whenever an example's actual output does not match its expected output.

updating: Runs the interactive examples, and replaces the expected output with the actual output whenever they don't match. This is used to update the output for new or out-of-date examples.

A number of other flags can be given; call the driver with the `--help` option for a complete list.

find_module_from_filename(filename)

source code

Given a filename, return a tuple `(basedir, module)`, where `module` is the module's name, and `basedir` is the directory it should be loaded from (this directory should be added to the path to import it). Packages are handled correctly.
