e.g. Does importing com.MyTest.* also import com.MyTest.UnitTests.*?

Not in Java., and not in python....Don't know about other languages :). In C and C++ there is some other mechanism

No you will have to import the subpackages explicitly. Importing com.MyTest.* will import classes in the package MyTest only. It will not import any class in any of it's subpackage.
