Within Node.js such issue may occur *only* when your dealing with cyclic 
dependencies. If it's the case just move require's to modules in question 
to end of the file (after assignment to module.exports), it will fix that.

You say it's Travis error, so maybe it's the case of circular dependencies 
between packages? See this issue: https://github.com/isaacs/npm/issues/2063 
there's also solution for that.

If it's none of the above, then either you misinterpreted something, or 
your modules are not loaded natively by Node but not in a compliant way by 
some other stuff in the middle, that could be the only explanation.
