Bug: Test files missing from sdist on PyPI

[jakirkham]

Describe the bug

Currently the testing_neuraxle directory is missing from the sdist on PyPI.

To Reproduce

curl -LO https://pypi.io/packages/source/n/neuraxle/neuraxle-0.8.1.tar.gz
tar xzf neuraxle-0.8.1.tar.gz
ls -1 neuraxle-0.8.1/testing_neuraxle

Expected behavior

Ideally the tests would be included in the sdist to make it easier to test after building/installing the package.

Suggested Fix

One solution would be to include a MANIFEST.in and add...

recursive-include testing_neuraxle *.py

...as well as anything else that might be needed to run the tests (like other directories or other extension types).

Additional context

This came up in trying to build & test a Conda package for conda-forge.
