That's a good suggestion, Hans. Unfortunately, when I tried it I get
false OK results -- all the tests are reported as "passing" yet I know
that one of them should fail. Here is my modified controller code,
with 2 doctests for the inner function, 1 of which should fail:
def my_controller():
"""
here are some doctests:
>>> my_controller()
35
"""
def inner_function(a,b):
"""
here are some doctests:
>>> inner_function(1,2)
3
>>> inner_function(3,4)
99
"""
return a + b
return 5 * inner_function(3,4)
