This version uses a logger:

# Web testing using Twill
# FB - 201011254
import time
import sys
import logging
from twill import get_browser
from twill.commands import *

logging.basicConfig(filename='Twill_test.log', filemode='w',
                    level=logging.NOTSET,
                    format='%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s')
logging.info('Starting the web test...')

# Navigate to Google
try:
    logging.info(go("http://www.google.com/"))
    logging.info(code(200)) # assert page loaded fine
    # showforms()
except Exception as e:
    logging.debug(e)
    sys.exit()

# Make a search
try:
    searchStr = 'Python'
    formvalue(1, 'q', searchStr)
    submit('btnG')
    time.sleep(1)
    logging.info(code(200)) # assert page loaded fine
except Exception as e:
    logging.debug(e)
    sys.exit()

# assert the search result
try:
    find('<em>Python</em> Programming Language . Official Website')
    # logging.info(find('regex')) # will fail
except Exception as e:
    logging.debug(e)
    sys.exit()

# click the link (using regex)
try:
    follow('Python Programming Language . Official Website')
    code(200) # assert page loaded fine
except Exception as e:
    logging.debug(e)

# assert current URL
try:
    logging.info(url('http://www.python.org/')) # will pass
    logging.info(url('http://www.google.com/')) # will fail
except Exception as e:
    logging.debug(e)

logging.shutdown()
