You need to run a WSGI-compliant server and configure it to host your
application. The std lib contains a simple reference server in
wsgiref, the make_server() example shows how to use it to run a demo
app:
http://docs.python.org/library/wsgiref.html#wsgiref.simple_server.make_server

If you want something more than that, look at the list here:
http://www.wsgi.org/wsgi/Servers

If I were to pick from that list for simple testing I would try CherryPy.
