<p>The modules described in this chapter help you write software.  For example, the
<a title="Documentation generator and online help system." class="reference external" href="pydoc.html#module-pydoc"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">pydoc</span></tt></a> module takes a module and generates documentation based on the
module&#8217;s contents.  The <a title="Test pieces of code within docstrings." class="reference external" href="doctest.html#module-doctest"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">doctest</span></tt></a> and <a title="Unit testing framework for Python." class="reference external" href="unittest.html#module-unittest"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">unittest</span></tt></a> modules contains
frameworks for writing unit tests that automatically exercise code and verify
that the expected output is produced.  <strong>2to3</strong> can translate Python 2.x
source code into valid Python 3.x code.</p>
