According to pybuild-autopkgtest(1) [1], it seems that Python packages that

some confusion on it with my recent uploads.
When I look at fscacher/0.4.1-1.1 upload [2], the autopkgtest failure for
this upload is weird. In [3], it looks like the tests are still to be
executed in the "build" directory.
There is no package build directory when autopkgtest runs, because
autopkgtest runs in a new separate chroot. That's what the line from the
manpage means.
Since this package is not built in autopkgtest, pytest cannot find
anything to test and then directly fails:
It's not directly related to building, it's just because your tests are in
src/fscacher/tests and so they are not copied into the test dir by
default. I don't know what's the preferred best practice for such
packages,
You need to list the files required for testing in
debian/pybuild.testfiles. Then both dh_auto_test and
autopkgtest-pkg-pybuild do the right thing.
