hello,
unittestadapter/discovery.py has the same name as my service discovery.

this is traceback

Failed to import test module: test_av

ImportError: cannot import name 'client' from 'discovery' (/root/.vscode-server/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.18.0-linux-x64/python_files/unittestadapter/discovery.py)

My system path does indeed have this package.

ls /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages|grep discovery
drwxr-sr-x  3 root staff     139 Nov  6 14:10 discovery/

Is there anyway to solve it?

Thanks!

Thanks to ChatGPT.
Currently, only one relatively tricky method is known, that is, temporarily modifying sys.path.

import sys
old_path = sys.path
sys.path = [p for p in sys.path if 'dist-packages' in p]

from discovery import client
from discovery import config as discovery_config

sys.path = old_path
