A common thing I have heard is that Python people are obsessed with documentation and Ruby people are obsessed with testing. Not saying that one or the other is 'better', just that the culture around each of the languages has created these stereotypes.

Doctest (http://docs.python.org/library/doctest.html) seems like an interesting crossover point, though.

I find this quite ironic, since some of the key properties in the Ruby language IMHO lead to an increased demand for documentation. For examples, see this comment on the blog post: http://nvie.com/posts/python-vs-ruby-survey/#comment-9820952...
