Eslint allow extraneous dependencies in tests

In my test files I get eslint error on some imports like

'import/no-extraneous-dependencies': ["error", { devDependencies: true, }],

this happens only in my second tests directory in some subfolder
in my root tests directory I don't get this errors
I didn't find any settings in package.json or .eslintrc which could cause differentiation.
Currently I have to use

/* eslint-disable import/no-extraneous-dependencies*/

in my test files which we don't like
If I add 

"import/no-extraneous-dependencies": ["error", { "devDependencies": true }]

to .eslintrc th rule is off everywhere not just in tests
How can I switch this rule of except of placing .eslintrc to the tests folder? which folders use devDependencies?

You can use an array of globs as follows, which will allow extraneous dependencies to be access from test files where file name matches **/*.test.js

"import/no-extraneous-dependencies": ["error", {"devDependencies": ["**/*.test.js"]}]

You can create a .eslintignore file in the project root to disable ESLint for specific files or directories.

And put the following line into it:

test/*

Reference: http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#ignoring-files-and-directories

Edit:

If you want to ignore a specific rule for a particular directory, you can put another .eslintrc file in that directory.
