I am working on issue #39672 but could not find the test files for base/refpointer.jl .I asked in the issue on Github but got no reply. So can anyone please tell me where the test file is located so that I could fix the issue?

Many files in base don’t have a single file that tests them. Perhaps you could describe what you tried and what issue you’re having?

Thanks for the help. I just wanted to know the tests file because I have made changes in the source file and wanted to write tests so that I could submit a Pull Request. Currently, I am having no issues.
