You can check the classes in method resolution order (mro):
import inspect
class A:
def foo(self):
pass
def bar(self):
pass
class B(A):
def bar(self):
pass
class C(B):
def baz(self):
pass
for methodname in dir(C) + ["spam"]:
for class_ in inspect.getmro(C):
if methodname in class_.__dict__:
print "%s.%s()" % (class_.__name__, methodname)
break
else:
print "no attribute named %r found" % methodname
