See also this discussion thread on wine-devel:

To summarize from the discussion thread:
* As pointed out, proper conformance tests should embed any extra file they
need in the resource file:
  http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2012-October/097435.html

* So this would be for running one-off tests on the TestBot in which case doing
it the proper way may be more trouble than it's worth.

* The SFX approach should be investigated. If it can be done without modifying
WineTestBot then that would probably be the best solution and it should be
documented somewhere on the Wiki.

* If the WineTestBot needs to be modified, then having it accept regular zip
files in addition to regular executables would probably be the easiest to use
solution.
