Hello Armin,
Thanks for pointing that out. I will definitely take a look at the test
code of that module first.

What I understand from that is, if I want to understand how pypy gc works and if i want to write my own version of GC at first I have to understand all the tests written on rpython/memory. I will now look extensively into that.

Suppose gc_test_base.py written in rpython/memory/test not only uses modules written in rpython.memory but also uses modules like llinterp from rpython.rtyper. As I don't know how those modules work how do I figure out their function written in the test codes? Do you have any suggestions for someone who is facing this issue?
