You can control warning behaviour with the -W commandline option: $ cat unicodewarning_demo.py # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- def g(): "ä" == u"ä" def f(n=3): if n: f(n-1) else: g() if __name__ == "__main__": f() $ python unicodewarning_demo.py unicodewarning_demo.py:4: UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal "ä" == u"ä" $ python -W error::UnicodeWarning unicodewarning_demo.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 13, in <module> f() File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 8, in f f(n-1) File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 8, in f f(n-1) File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 8, in f f(n-1) File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 10, in f g() File "unicodewarning_demo.py", line 4, in g "ä" == u"ä" UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal $ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
