I have find this problem, when I run test.
$ sudo ./run_tests.sh test_rest
Failed to import plugin plugins.sample.Drawings
this patch has fixed this problem.
I am still getting the import error while running mockmodel tests:
alinefm@alinefm:~/kimchi/tests$ sudo ./run_tests.sh test_mockmodel
Failed to import plugin plugins.sample.Drawings
Is it another issue or this patch should fix it too?
