Ok, given your explanation in your other mail, this makes sense to me, too. That makes it easy enough to write tests with simple files in different places, be it .py files or .pyx files or .pxd files. The import mechanism is clearly lacking a lot of tests, so I'm happy to see this getting solved. It could also be an alternative to (or replace?) the naming convention for wrapper files, assuming that a short(!) wrapper test is much easier to read when everything is in one file. For longer files, this can get harder to read and edit, though, depending on the editor support (Emacs will work well, I guess). I guess both ways have their raison d'être...
