Recommended Structure
Why this structure works
A conventional layout that any developer can navigate without explanation: source under `src`, documentation in `docs`, and tests separated into unit, integration, and end-to-end so it is obvious what each suite covers and what to run when. The separation keeps test intent explicit rather than implied by filename.
Small Project Adaptation
For a small script or utility, collapse the test tiers into a single `tests` folder and keep `README.md` at the root instead of a full `docs` directory.
Large Scale Scaling
For a larger system, promote `src` subdirectories into modules with their own local tests, and keep the top-level `tests` folder for integration and end-to-end suites that cross module boundaries.
