title: Import with dot name in python
body: <p>How can I import a dotted name file in python?</p>
  
  <p>I don't mean a relative path, but a filename starting or containing a dot <code>"."</code></p>
  
  <p>For example: <code>'.test.py'</code> is the filename.</p>
  
  <p><code>import .test</code> will search for a <code>test</code> package with a <code>py</code> module in a parent package.</p>
