To quote IRC:

In theory it's simple: go to dmd/test and run make.
In practice you need to have druntime and phobos installed at the right  
places.
I think if you clone dmd, druntime, and phobos and put them all in the  
same directory, then you build dmd, druntime, and phobos, then you should  
be able to run the test suite.

you also need to have a dmd.conf that's not included with the suite :<	

Ah, yeah, true. And since I remember I made my dmd.conf point to those  
places, maybe you don't need to have druntime and phobos there after all.
But it's still a good idea to be able to get non-release druntime (and to  
some extent phobos) when playing with non-release versions of DMD.
