Comment (by Starou):
Replying to [comment:1 timgraham]:
> Yes, something like this seems like a good idea. We shouldn't suggest
using `sys.path` though, per #19941 (comment 9 and later).
In my case - AFAIR - using `PYTHONPATH` does not works because it came
after installed packages in the resolution order (because I want my test
project to run against the source located in `../..` and not against the
sources I may have system-wide installed.
This is only true for the first `sys.path.insert(0, '../../')`, the
test_project path can be put in `PYTHONPATH`.
In my case, I prefered not to mix both.
Anyway, the first insert is very specific and can be removed and the
second converted in a `PYTHONPATH` expression.
> Would you like to submit a patch? I'll be happy to review it.
With pleasure.
