Hello friends. Test discovery with namespaced
[https://packaging.python.org/guides/packaging-namespace-packages/
packages] fails when selecting a subpackage because of the way unittest
discover evaluates paths. A reproducible example repository and full
documentation can be found
[https://github.com/JonnyWaffles/djangonamespacetestfail here]. However,
if you test the entire namespace, or a specific test module, everything
works.
I'm not sure what the solution is, but it may have something to do with
how the test runner calls discover.
<EDIT> I tried the same situation with just the normal Python unittest
module discovery and it still occurs. Looks like this may be a Python
problem and not a Django problem.
