Hi,
I am developing a Package under PyDy,  for GSoC.
This is my directory structure.

pydy/
--------- __init__.py
---------pydy_viz/
                    -----------------__init__.py
                    --------------shapes.py
                    --------------tests\
                                    -----------__init__.py
                                    -----------test_shapes.py

Now I am trying to import pydy_viz.shapes from inside tests, i.e from
test_shapes.py

I have tried both approaches.
from pydy_viz.shapes import *
Error: No module named pydy_viz.shapes
and relatively ..

from ..shapes import *
Error: tried relative imports from non-package.

but I am not able to import it.
Any ideas what I might be doing wrong.
I dont have a setup.py file in place for now.

Thanks
