Why did you do this move?  Having tests bee in the same directory as
the code makes it much easier to maintain, and I mean "same directory"
in both the place where the file gets installed and being in the same
package.

(In case it's not obvious where I'm coming from: when I wanted to test
the recent commit, I resorted to grepping the tree for the file -- I
view such grepping as indicators of organizational failures that
should not be needed even after the repo is split, and commits like
this make things worse in this regard.)
