Use a test discovery program like py.test or nose. These programs 
start the test scripts with the right sys.path so that they can find 
their libraries.
py.test: http://codespeak.net/py/dist/test/test.html
nose:    http://code.google.com/p/python-nose/

I've had similar problems with executing tests, and I have posted a 
short description how to use py.test to this list.
