Class inheritance from different modules python

Question

I'm new to python and I have a hard time trying to figuring out how can I inherit from a class in an other module.

module: ~/foo.py

import bar

class foo:
    def test(self)
        print("this is a test")

module: ~/bar.py

class bar(foo):
    def __init__(self):
        super().test()

As soon as bar is imported, I get this error message :

NameError: name 'foo' is not defined

I tried that already, it doesn't works... I get the same message.

Why are you importing bar in foo?
