My impression was that it doesn't matter who runs the tests.

Some kind of documentation is [2]:

--- quote ---
To simplify running the tests, a single Windows executable containing all the
tests (named WineTest) is updated daily and can be downloaded from the bottom
of WineHQ's testing page. This helps collect results from a broader set of
Windows, Unix and Mac environments than the Wine TestBot farm can cover.

Running WineTest requires no programming skills whatsoever. Simply download the
executable, answer any prompts that come up, and let the test suite do the
rest. This makes running the test suite one of the simplest ways that users can
help improve Wine.

I guess that's perfect chance for the new bugreport under Product: WineHQ
Bugzilla (probably missing a component).

Thanks for the support.
