You can get the test suite at the following link:

  http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lua/testlua5_0.tar.gz

Caveat: those tests are not intended for external use. (e.g., most of
its comments/messages are in Portuguese), so you need some adjustments
to put it to work. To run all tests, I use the following script
(assuming the tests are in a sub-directory "testes" from the current
directory):

  export LUA_PATH="?;./?.lua;testes/?.lua"
  export LUA_INIT="wd='testes/'"
  if { lua testes/all; } then 
    echo -e "\n\n    final OK!!!!\n\n"
  else
    echo -e "\n\n    >>>> BICHADO !!!!\n\n"
  fi
