If I understand you correctly you want something that sets the right search path for library modules. http://codespeak.net/py/dist/test/ http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/0.11.1/ You could also tweak the environment variable "$PYTHONPATH" or the variable "sys.path". See section 6.1.2: http://docs.python.org/tutorial/modules.html I use "py.test" and like it. But I keep tests and libraries in the same directory. I know however that "py.test" also supports separate directories for tests.
