No, our tests are almost always .py files.  If you have some more
precise query, like "where is code xyz tested?", I can answer more
precisely.

We run some tests with the pypy binaries, like CPython's own tests and
more.  Obviously it requires first getting a pypy in binary form.
Then see e.g. http://buildbot.pypy.org/builders/pypy-c-jit-linux-x86-64/builds/2722
.  The last four sections (numbers 10 to 13) are running some tests;
for example section number 11 is the CPython tests.  You can click on
"stdio" to see the exact command used to run the tests (in the first
line).


A bientôt,

Armin.
