Runs a simple test to import all the Python files beneath a particular module. Useful for smoke-testing whether there are import loops; a common failing of Python IDEs is that they're poor at finding import loops.

Assumes that Python has already been set up.

Example usage:

  - uses: UoMResearchIT/actions/python-import-all-test@v1.2.3
    with:
      module: mymodule
