There are two issues. First Skip asked about testing particular modules
that are not currently tested using Python's standard test suite. Those
test cases should use Python's standard testing framework, which is
documented in the Python source distribution.

Unrelated, there has been a little idle chatter about adopting a more
sophisticated unit testing suite. It may go nowhere, but Jeremy has
recently asked for a volunteer to compare and contrast some of the
existing unit testing packages as a basis for discussion.
