It's a bit deeper than that, Nesting a class definition inside of a class definition will result in a class namespaced as first_class::second_class. Because of this, you'll need to "include mock::my_file" in your node declaration.
It's recommended to keep one class definition per file and to follow the Module patterns [2] and Style Guide [3] when doing so.
