Pytest/Locust: ModuleNotFoundError No module named

Question

Ive tried to find anwsers on similar topics, but... nothing helped.
When I run my regular tests with pytest -m blablabla - there are no problems, but
when I run locust by command:

locust -f my_locustfiles/instr_performance.py

than got this:

(venv) evgen@TLL amapitest % locust -f my_locustfiles/instr_performance.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

Answer 1

Ive solved my problem by moving "my_locustfiles" folder into root directory of project and running test from this directory.

I still dont understand why locust cant find imported methods when locust file was located in "amapitest"

but...anyway, thanks everyone
