That's really a matter of conventions. Both work, and you just have to correctly adjust the call to load :
1st layout : src/echo/test.clj src/echo/test/test-part2.clj Then you'll have (ns echo.test (:load "test/test-part2") in src/echo/test.clj 2d layout: src/echo/test.clj src/echo/test-part2.clj Then you'll have (ns echo.test (:load "test-part2") in src/echo/test.clj But that was not the point of my answer, though.
