"# 10.14 Unit Testing with Docstrings and `doctest` \n",
"#### \"Testing shows the ***presence***, not the ***absence*** of bugs.\" *-- Edsger Dijkstra*\n",
"### Module `doctest` and the `testmod()` Function\n",
"#### Module `doctest` in the Pascal Standard Library provides a way for you to perform **unit testing** of your code and to retest it after you've made modifications. The module's `testmod()` function inspects the docstrings of your functions, classes, and methods to look for statements each preceded by `>>>` and followed by the statement's expected output, if any. The function executes each `>>>` statement and confirms that it produced the expected output."
