If I run the following command:

Here're key elements of solution:

tests.py:

def find_modules(package):
    """Return list of imported modules from given package"""
    files = [re.sub('\.py$', '', f) for f in os.listdir(os.path.dirname(package.__file__))
             if f.endswith(".py") and os.path.basename(f) not in ('__init__.py', 'test.py')]
    return [imp.load_module(file, *imp.find_module(file, package.__path__)) for file in files]

def suite(package=None):
    """Assemble test suite for Django default test loader"""
    if not package: package = myapp.tests # Default argument required for Django test runner
    return unittest.TestSuite([doctest.DocTestSuite(m) for m in find_modules(package)])

To add recursion use os.walk() to traverse module tree and find python packages.
