Avoid installing tests to site-packages

2017-12-10T18:55:58+00:00

For library end users, there is no need to install tests alongside the
package itself. This keeps the tests available for development without
adding extra packages to user's site-packages directory. Reduces the
size of the installed package. Avoids accidental execution of test code
by an installed package.

Use relative imports throughout tests

2017-12-10T18:51:07+00:00

The tests relied on Python2 relative import semantics. Python3 changed
import semantics to always search sys.path by default. To import using a
relative path it must have a leading dot.

Forward compatible with newer Pythons.

Works towards the goal of moving tests outside of the installed package.
