Elena, you can think of C-M-x as restoring the original *ns* after evaluating the form. After evaluating that ns form, you can evaluate (find-ns 'test) in the REPL and see that the test namespace was created; it's just that the REPL thread was never changed into test. In addition, if you evaluate another form like (defn hi [] :hi) test/hi will be available for future evaluations. If you want to set the REPL package from your .clj buffer, use C-c M-p (slime-repl-set-package).
