Django: reusable app testing

By following official Django doc, I've extracted an app from my project and made it reusable and installable using pip (currently I still have to learn how to release it on pypi but that's another story)... so far so good... but now I have no idea how to run the tests I wrote for my app, since after installing it in my project using pip Django stopped to execute those tests (by default in Django 1.7 only project-apps tests are picked up)... so my question is: how can I run tests for my apps now that it has been extracted from the main project sources?

ps: of course I don't want to force the potential users of my app to run the tests I wrote, but I have to run them while working on the app on my machine
