How do I test dictionary-equality with Python's doctest-package?

Question

I\'m writing a doctest for a function that outputs a dictionary. The doctest looks like

>>> my_function()
{\'this\': \'is\', \'a\': \'dictionary\'}

Most of it has been already said here.. anyway JSYK: there is a dedicated section in doctest documentation:
