Test discovery failure / regression for uniitest

[bigjools]

Behaviour

Similar to the issue reported here
microsoft/vscode-python#16593
and somewhat in here
microsoft/vscode-python#17641 (comment)

Test discovery is crashing (see output below).
This looks like it's the old problem of syspath being wrong and it is trying to import a local module called "logging" instead of the system one.
This appears to be a regression, is it was working previously and nothing else has changed for me other than upgrading vscode and extensions.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a repo with its own logging.py file
2. Configure unittest as test runner
3. Start the debugger and watch it fail to discover the tests

Diagnostic data

settings.json test section:

    "python.testing.unittestEnabled": true,
    "python.testing.unittestArgs": [
        "-v",
        "-s",
        "helios/tests",
        "-t",
        "${workspaceFolder}",
        "-p",
        "test*.py"
    ],

Debugger output:

what python version do you have? We haven't made any changes in this area recently (edit I see now it says 3.12)

[eleanorjboyd]

What happens if you try and run unittest from the command line with the same arguments you have in your settings? Can you also try looking at your python path variable from the terminal vs the vscode run? I am thinking something in your path might not be showing up right as you are looking for a custom logger file

[bigjools]

python3 -m unittest discover -v -s helios/tests -t . -p 'test*.py'
in the terminal works just fine.
Can you remind me how to work out what sys.path it would be using in its debugger runs?

Thanks.

[eleanorjboyd]

if you add

import sys
print(sys.path)

at the very top of your file, before it attempts this import Failed to import test module: helios.tests.anchore.test_client, which I think is caused by this import: File "/home/juledwar/src/helios/helios/tests/anchore/test_client.py", line 5, in <module> from unittest import mock

That first module looks mighty suspicious.
