Put everything in 'lib'. Put the tests (that you need to write) in =
'test'.

lib/gem_name.rb should require like so:

require "gem_name/server"

when you run your tests (preferably via rake) make sure that "lib" is in =
your load path.=20

ruby -Ilib test/gem_name/test_server.rb

and when you package this up as a gem, the "lib" dir should be in your =
gemspec's lib path.
