Definitely, write unit tests and run the whole suite
<URL:http://www.python.org/doc/lib/module-unittest>. All errors found
by your unit test suite will be reported.
If you mean the Python parser and compiler, then the answer to this is
in the Zen of Python: "In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation
to guess". An error in parsing or compiling leaves no clear
unambiguous path for finding further parsing or compilation errors.
