What do you think?
I have tried this but I think it is more trouble than it is worth having an extra set of directories to navigate. I put the tests in the same directory as the module under test. The tests for module.py are in moduletest.py. By putting 'test' at the end, the tests are listed next to the module under test in directory listings, which I like. I use ant (a Java tool) for most of my packaging and it is easy to filter files by name so I don't need an extra directory for that.
