Looks good. A few comments:
- At least on my screen, the orange text on white background is a bit
too light for comfortable reading (the same text actually looks a bit
too dark in the header, though sounds like we might change that
anyway).
- Need to work on the behavior and labeling of the "collapse" button.
It currently works as a toggle that reverses the current state of each
section (i.e., whichever sections are expanded collapse, and whichever
are collapsed expand). It would probably be better to have "collapse
all" and "expand all" behavior instead (i.e., regardless of the
current state of each section). In that case, the button text should
switch from "collapse" to "expand".
- When I click one of the buttons at the top of the design view for a
section that is not currently expanded, I expect it to expand (and
jump to) that section -- but it doesn't do the expanding, which makes
it appear to be non-functional.
- The "test" icon looks like a "danger" icon. Is that icon commonly
used to indicate testing? Maybe consider alternatives, or at least
include a tooltip to make it clear.
- That's a lot of bold red X's. What about replacing the delete and
test icons with small light-background text buttons (i.e., smaller
than the edit button)? Might look a little lighter.
- In the file lists, maybe consider listing all the subfolders either
at the top or the bottom (i.e., like a typical file explorer) rather
than interspersed alphabetically with the files. Also, when expanded,
maybe indent a bit to make it easier to see which files are in the
subfolder.

Thanks.

Anthony
