[issue27642] import and __import__() fails silently without a ImportError and does not add the module to the file's namespace.

[Emanuel Barry]

Emanuel Barry added the comment:

Yeah, just add 'global testplugin' at the top of your function, before your import it (you'll also need a global statement if you want to delete/re-import it). You might want to take a look at importlib if you wish to dynamically load modules (especially reloading them, which is a pain).
