unittest helpers(?) for verifying a package has valid docstrings

[Jelmer Vernooij]

It would be neat if there was some way of having the testsuite verify that the syntax of all docstrings, etc is valid - without generating all the output.

I might have a look at this myself, though hints as how to do this would be much appreciated.

Yes, this would be nice. I don't think it would be too hard either, I think you just need to iterate over system.allobjects and call epydoc2stan.doc2html on each object. The way errors are currently reported is a bit unhelpful for this, but that's probably easy to fix (you could just put reportErrors=reportErrors in doc2html's argument list for a good start I guess!).
