doctest.Tester is deprecated

[Michele Simionato]

Some time ago I hacked a custom solution to run doctests
on text files containing documentation. The solution
involved this kind of game:

tester=doctest.Tester(globs={},verbose=1)
tester.runstring(mytest)

It worked fine, but now with Python 2.4.a3 I get

DeprecationWarning: class Tester is deprecated; use class
doctest.DocTestRunner instead
 
The problem is that DocTestRunner is not a replacement for Tester, it
has
no runstring method!

So, how what am I supposed to do?
