Question: does CodeApprove place related files in closer proximity during review? I would _love_ to have a class and its test next to each other instead of sorted alphabetically. I'm tired of jumping around all over the place, trying to traverse through my review thought process.

I can't speak for CodeApprove, but Reviewable has file grouping capabilities so users can groups files based on anything they want (using a javascript function to do it)
CodeApprove does not have that feature because we don't currently do any smart code parsing to understand what would make a file "related". I think Viezly (https://viezly.com/) does the best job at that.
I feel like if you want that then you should colocate the files in the same folder.
Convention and culture. Hence - I wish that I could.
