Alexander Belopolsky <belopol...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Many demos already include a self-test:

$ grep '^def test(' Demo/*/*.py
Demo/classes/Complex.py:def test():
Demo/classes/Dates.py:def test(firstyear, lastyear):
Demo/classes/Range.py:def test():
Demo/classes/Vec.py:def test():
Demo/parser/test_parser.py:def test():
Demo/pdist/FSProxy.py:def test():
Demo/pdist/RCSProxy.py:def test():
Demo/pdist/cmdfw.py:def test():
Demo/pdist/cvslib.py:def test():
Demo/pdist/cvslock.py:def test():
Demo/rpc/mountclient.py:def test():
Demo/rpc/nfsclient.py:def test():
Demo/rpc/rnusersclient.py:def test():
Demo/rpc/rpc.py:def test():
Demo/scripts/markov.py:def test():
Demo/sockets/gopher.py:def test():
Demo/threads/Generator.py:def test():
Demo/threads/sync.py:def test():
Demo/turtle/tdemo_penrose.py:def test(l=200, n=4, fun=sun, startpos=(0,0), 
th=2):
 
I think the first step should be to run those from regrtest.  The next step 
would be to convert adhoc test functions into doctests or unit tests as 
appropriate.

Step zero, however, should be to decide which demos are worth keeping and which 
should be removed.
