I presume you meant "does not" here.  Yes, this is true.

I'm presuming that you are doing a module level import.  Although I
haven't attempted this yet, in Python you can move the import inside
the function that you're calling.  For example:

def test_function(self):
    from foo import bar
    bar(self, 'ram', 'ewe')

One day, I will get around to testing this myself (for that is the
nature of my surname :-) ...
