django 1.6 app tests.py to tests subdirectory

with django 1.6, I have a django app with tests.py file

app
- tests.py

in this file I tested some management functions 

from management.commands.getevents import some_function

when I try change the tests.py to a tests directory with differents tests files

app
- tests
-- __init__.py
-- test_models.py
-- test_views.py
-- test_managements.py

and I try running the test

python manage.py test

get this error 

ImportError: Failed to import test module: events.tests.test_managements
...
ImportError: No module named management.commands...

with the directory of test files, why django don't see the management module ?

Explicitly import management from app:

from app.management.commands.getevents import some_function

Just to prove my words with a working example, check how custom management command is imported in django-compressor tests:

from compressor.management.commands.compress import Command as CompressCommand
