Foreign key constraints reference only the table named in the constraint,
not any of its children and isn't inherited to children.  If the row were
in test_parent specifically, it would have worked.  In general I haven't
seen any great workarounds, usually I'd suggest splitting the key columns
to a separate table and have the each table in the tree reference that.
