Even better: you can do it yourself by adding a `.elpaignore` file which
contains just `test` in it.
[ Actually, I'd recommend you put `test` on one line and `COPYING` on
  the other since that's not needed in a tarball downloaded by Emacs
  which already comes with that COPYING file.  ]

I guess it's because tomelr/test is not added to `load-path` (which
sounds like a good thing).  If you care to fix it (not needed if you
add the `.elpaignore`) then you could use

    (require 'tjson-utils "test/tjson-utils")
