PATH issue with pytest ‘ImportError: No module named …’

by

I’m not sure why py.test does not add the current directory in the PYTHONPATH itself, but here’s a workaround (to be executed from the root of your repository):

python -m pytest tests/

It works because Python adds the current directory in the PYTHONPATH for you.
