We include them in the source distribution which you can download the
2.6RC1 release which just came out today here:

http://ironpython.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=30315#DownloadId=84669

All of the side-by-side tests are in:

IronPython-2.6\Src\Tests\compat

Or you can view the source via the web at:

http://ironpython.codeplex.com/SourceControl/ListDownloadableCommits.aspx
(this page also has instructions for Subversion and other source control 
clients)

And the latest version there is in:

IronPython_Main\Src\Tests\compat

Hopefully the infrastructure will just work on Jython because it also runs on
CPython but there may be some Windows specific code in there (e.g. import nt, 
a general problem w/ our tests from the days before we always ran tests w/ 
the CPython std lib present).  

If you run into any problems let me know and I'd be happy to fix it to make 
them more compatible.
