One possibility is that your python file has the same name as a module:

• test.py
• test/
  • __init__.py

in pickle.py, you have the error coming from:

    def find_class(self, module, name):
      # Subclasses may override this
      __import__(module)
      mod = sys.modules[module] # <- here mod will reference your test/__init__.py
      klass = getattr(mod, name)
      return klass
