Django extract tests outside /src/project

I am trying to follow best practices which I often find in GitHub repositories: I would like to have a /src and a /test folder at the top level in a project. (random example https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin). I am not sure how to configure Django to accept that though.

In particular, Django is expecting tests to be inside the project folder, but ideally, these tests should be outside of /src/django_project and inside /test.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

project_root
  |-- src
  |   |-- project_name
  |       |-- app_name
  |       |   |-- views.py
  |       |   |-- serializers.py
  |       |   |-- etc...
  |       |-- manage.py
  |-- test
      |-- project_name
          |-- test_feature1.py
          |-- test_feature2.py
