PyCharm unittests only work individually

Question

I can run my test cases individually by right-clicking them and selecting Run 'Unittests in test_whatever' but when I right-click the project root folder and select Run 'Unittests in MyProject' I get ImportErrors such as this:

Testing started at 10:42 ...

I'm assuming this has something to do with the working directory.

I'm running python 2.7.9. And yes, the virtualenv is in the project folder, and on git. Don't ask.

Did you set the checkboxes Add content roots to PYTHONPATH and Add source roots to PYTHONPATH in the Run/Debug Configuration Dialog of pyCharm. If not, this could help.
