get_test_file missing from the PyPI release

[Apteryks]

This leads to errors such as:

ImportError while importing test module '/tmp/guix-build-python-warcio-1.7.4.drv-0/warcio-1.7.4/test/test_writer.py'.
Hint: make sure your test modules/packages have valid Python names.
Traceback:
test/test_writer.py:11: in <module>
    from . import get_test_file
E   ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package

Looks like test/init.py is explicitly excluded in setup.py? packages=find_packages(exclude=['test']) and as a result, nothing on pypi has it?

I agree, I already looked at that. The point about not shipping test is that it's namespace pollution, it's not below warcio. All of the packages I've ever packaged didn't ship the tests, for this reason. Did I miss a new trend in packaging python?

[Apteryks]

I think the issue I saw was that the tests appear to be partially included in the release archive; if the tests are explicitly excluded, that's OK, but they should fully be (i.e., there shouldn't be any "test" directory remaining in the root directory).
