Where is documented the behaviour of the standard function randrange in

It's the same back to at least Python 2.5, so you can probably rely on
that behaviour.
Interestingly, the documentation says:
"""This is equivalent to choice(range(start, stop, step)), but doesn’t
actually build a range object."""
but for choice(seq) it says:
"""If seq is empty, raises IndexError."""
so it's not entirely equivalent.
