The only sure way would be to run the script under an appropriately old 
version of Python.

Does any one know of one ?



Run your test suite with whichever versions of Python you want to support.

Tools like Hudson () and BuildBot

Looking for a tool to checkfor python script backward compatibility

[Baptiste Lepilleur]

I'm looking for a tool that could be used in a pre-commit step to check that 
only features available in a "old" python version are used, say python 2.3 
for example.

Does any one know of one ?
