If an indication of success/failure can't be produced on stdout, doctest is
useless.  OTOH, if you have any automatable way whatsoever to test a thing,
I'm betting you could dream up a way to print
    yes
or
    no
to stdout accordingly.  If not, you probably need to work on something other
than your testing strategy first <wink>.
