Zope 3 is a Python-based web framework that has been using doctests (the Python version of this which inspired the author) for a long time now. Most new tests are written as doctests, and we're even able to test browser interaction (and thus integration tests) in a doctest format.

Zope 3 has been developed using a test-heavy strategy from the start. We find doctests help improve the quality and maintainability of our tests. It also tremendously improves the quality and quantity of developer documentation.
