R. David Murray added the comment:

Testing the documentation examples is a long term goal, which people 
occasionally contribute to.  I think there is an open issue about using the 
Sphinx doctest support, that for a long time was blocked by the documentation 
tool chain not using python3.  Some examples are very hard to run in an 
automated fashion, as well.  Perhaps the examples can be tweaked...but in some 
cases they can't, without losing their teaching value.  I have a feeling the 
multiprocessing examples fall into this category, as I seem to remember doing a 
pass of testing of them a (python3) release or two ago.  I did not test them on 
windows, though.
