[Solved] Testsetup ends with error: TypeError: Module xyz does not define any tests

I created an empty addon called setup.test, only for play and learn with mrbob bobtemplates.plone:addon
i customized some imports in testing.py, e.g. i replace z2 with zope, because its a Plone 5.2.2 Installation on Py3
I upgraded my buildout to the last package version of plone.testing = 8.0.2 and plone.app.testing = 6.1.7
I run a first test:

> bin/test --all
Test-module import failures:
Module: setup.tests.testing
TypeError: Module setup.tests.testing does not define any tests

Now i'm a little bit clueless, whats going wrong, perhaps ist the bobtemplate to old?

Thats my setup:

# testing.py

from plone.app.robotframework.testing import REMOTE_LIBRARY_BUNDLE_FIXTURE
from plone.app.testing import applyProfile
from plone.app.testing import FunctionalTesting
from plone.app.testing import IntegrationTesting
from plone.app.testing import PLONE_FIXTURE
from plone.app.testing import PloneSandboxLayer
from plone.testing import zope

class SetupTestsLayer(PloneSandboxLayer):

    defaultBases = (PLONE_FIXTURE,)

    def setUpZope(self, app, configurationContext):
        import plone.restapi
        self.loadZCML(package=plone.restapi)
        self.loadZCML(package=setup.tests)

    def setUpPloneSite(self, portal):
        applyProfile(portal, 'setup.tests:default')

SETUP_TESTS_FIXTURE = SetupTestsLayer()

SETUP_TESTS_INTEGRATION_TESTING = IntegrationTesting(
    bases=(SETUP_TESTS_FIXTURE,),
    name='SetupTestsLayer:IntegrationTesting',
)

SETUP_TESTS_FUNCTIONAL_TESTING = FunctionalTesting(
    bases=(SETUP_TESTS_FIXTURE,),
    name='SetupTestsLayer:FunctionalTesting',
)

SETUP_TESTS_ACCEPTANCE_TESTING = FunctionalTesting(
    bases=(
        SETUP_TESTS_FIXTURE,
        REMOTE_LIBRARY_BUNDLE_FIXTURE,
        zope.WSGI_SERVER_FIXTURE
    ),
    name='SetupTestsLayer:AcceptanceTesting',
)
# tests/test_setup.py

from plone.testing.zope import Browser
from setup.tests.testing import SETUP_TESTS_FUNCTIONAL_TESTING  # noqa: E501

import unittest

class SetupFunctionalTest(unittest.TestCase):
    """ basic use cases """

    layer = SETUP_TESTS_FUNCTIONAL_TESTING

    def setUp(self):
        # Set up browser
        app = self.layer['app']
        self.portal = self.layer['portal']
        self.portal_url = self.portal.absolute_url()
        self.browser = Browser(app)
        self.browser.handleErrors = False        

    def test_plone(self):
        self.browser.open(self.portal_url)
        self.assertTrue('plone' in self.browser.contents)

zope.testrunner expects to find your tests inside your package directory, in a subpackage or module named tests.

From zope.testrunner ยท PyPI

Could it be that because your package is called setup.tests, the .tests part makes the testrunner think that everything inside are tests?

Yes this was the solution. Thanks. I test it with a "myaddon.check" namespace and all was fine.
