Adding another answer in the hopes that it helps someone down the road. I've been fighting this problem and just figured out the answer (I think). I originally deleted the standard Django file tests.py out of my application folder. I also created a subdirectory of my project called tests, which contains separate test scripts. In this situation, Pycharm failed to find the tests. I corrected this simply by creating an empty file called tests.py in my application folder.

So:

1. Make sure you have a file called tests.py in your application director (it can be an empty file)
2. It seems that a folder called tests, in your project, can contain separate test scripts and Pycharm seems to find and run these.

Here's a picture of the directory structure that's working for me:
