Ruff complains that the length of the line is >88 which is why I had to split them into multiple lines.

If i do not add backslash, DocTest assumes ListNode( is the expected value and thereby the test fails

PEP8 discourages backslash line termination in Python because any whitespace to the right of the backslash breaks the script on a change that is invisible to the reader. Also, backslashes are not required inside of (), [], {}...

Suggested change
>>>is_palindrome_dict(\
ListNode(\
1, ListNode(2, ListNode(1, ListNode(3, ListNode(2, ListNode(1)))))))
>>>is_palindrome_dict(
... ListNode(
... 1, ListNode(2, ListNode(1, ListNode(3, ListNode(2, ListNode(1)))))

Ruff complains that the length of the line is >88 which is why I had to split them into multiple lines.

If i do not add backslash, DocTest assumes ListNode( is the expected value and thereby the test fails

You needed the three dots at the beginning of each continued line as discussed in the doctest docs.
