While writing test cases I found 2 problems:
There are 3 test files out of which one_test.go and two_test.go can be added to server_suites_test.go and it runs fine. But the functions of three_point_one_test.go cannot be added into server_suites_test.go because _test.go cannot be imported.
one_test.go and two_test.go use gRPC client object which is created by server_test.go. Actually, server_test.go creates a gRPC server and a client and this client is used by the other test cases. Currently three_point_one_test.go cannot access this client. So to solve this issue I'm creating client every time this test is run.

Is there any way to add other tests present in children packages into the test suite?

No.
Tests are not part of the package. As you can import only whole packages and the tests are not part of it you simply cannot. And stop thinking about "child packages": There are no such things. All packages are equal and their filesystem location does not matter (except internal and vendor).
