I have a deprecation warning that I need to make an error in 3.4. A neat trick to remember to do those changes is using a test that fails if something does not raise a DeprecationWarning if sys.versioninfo[:2] == (3, 3), or an error if sys.versioninfo[:3] == (3, 4). You write those tests once and let “make test” remind you as soon as the Python version changes.

I like the idea, but it seems a little hostile to the person who actually changes the version number!
