In the example, animals would be the app modules which contains a models.py file and/or tests.py.  "classify" would be a function in either models.py or tests.py with a doctest string as the comment.

$ ./manage.py test animals.Bear

The above would run the doctest comment on the class Bear in models.py for the animals package.

$ ./manage.py test animals.Bear.growl

The above would run the doctest comment of the method "growl" in the class Bear in models.py for the animals package.

$ ./manage.py test animals.myfunc

The above would run the doctest comment of the function "myfunc" in models.py for the animals package.

You'd specify your doctests as comments on classes, class methods or functions in either models.py or tests.py;

class Bear(models.Model):
    """
    >>> a = 1
    >>> a
    1
    """
    
    def growl(self):
        """
        >>> a = 1
        >>> a
        1
        """
        pass

def myfunc():
    """
    >>> a = 1
    >>> a
    1
    """
    pass

In https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/testing/ , individual tests can be run. It works well for unit tests in tests.py. It should work for doctest in model.py. I can not understand how to specify a doctest.

$ ./manage.py test animals.classify

Thanks,
