there is a module in Python 2.2's standard library called unittest and
its interface will look very familiar if you are used to xUnit (NUnit,
JUnit, etc).  Just "import unittest"

http://docs.python.org/lib/module-unittest.html

If you wanted some more help in dealing with a large suite of tests,
you could use the nose module,

requires at least Python 2.3 .
