In Python2, I have the following directory structure:
Project
|____Tests
|____tester.py
|____Scripts
|____run_test_1.py
|____run_test_2.py
In tester.py
, I have a class called Tester
, which takes in some arguments, and then runs a test (details are not important). In run_test_1.py
and run_test_2.py
, I create a Tester object, with a certain set of arguments, and run this test.
But I am having difficulty with relative imports. In run_test_1.py
, I have the line from Tests import tester
. However, if I run python run_test_1.py
from the command line, I receive the error No module named Tests
. I think that this is because Python only searches the current directory for packages, so it cannot find my Tests
directory.
So, what should I do instead? One solution is to move run_test_1.py
up one level, so that it is in the Project
directory. This works, because Python searches the current directory and it can then find Tests
. But for my particular case, I want run_test_1.py
to be in the Scripts
directory.
Thank you.
