Feature description
There are a bunch of tests that can be moved closer to the repository where the source code is.
e.g. all tests in tests_rclcpp can be moved to rclcpp.
See https://github.com/ros2/rclcpp/pull/931#issuecomment-561868473 discussion.
Probably, the sames apply to test_rclpy.

Research direction
Start by comparing the tests_rclcpp and rclcpp repositories, then review the discussion in rclcpp pull request 931. Determine which tests belong with their source code and whether the same relocation applies to test_rclpy. Done means the applicable tests have been moved to the source repositories without losing coverage.
