I use Rspec/Guard to watch changed files and automatic run test for for Ruby/Rails application.
How can I repeat similar scenario for Clojure-app?

Lein-test-refresh works well

Depending on what testing library you are using there are different answers.
The built-in clojure.test has lein-test-refresh, prism, and quickie. Of the three I use lein-test-refresh (though, I'm also the author of it so I'm a bit biased). The expectations library has lein-autoexpect (I'm also the author of lein-autoexpect). Midje has it built-in. You can run continuously test from a repl or using lein-midje.
Both lein-test-refresh and lein-autoexpect support notifying in various ways when your tests finish running. All of the tools mentioned above monitor your files and when something changes they reload the affected namespaces and then rerun your tests.
lein-auto can also be used to run a Leiningen task when a file changes. Its a bit different than the above tools in that it doesn't directly reload the modified namespaces but instead runs a Leiningen task. Since it can trigger any Leiningen task lein-auto is more flexible. If your goal is to minimize feedback time you'll want to use one of the above tools though as they provide a significantly shorter feedback cycle.

If you're used to Rspec, have a look at Speclj.[1] It's somewhat Rspec-like. Its -a option does the same as lein midje :autotest, and works better for some situations.
In my experience, the different testing frameworks each have their warts and nice features -- it's worth trying more than one.
