The current build scripts delete test-related directories after the build, by finding exact directory matches against the names test and tests. However this leaves one directory behind:
lib/python3.6/idlelib/idle_test/

It's only ~1MB, but seeing as the other test directories are being deleted, I think it makes sense to include it too.

Ideally at some point upstream will support disabling building tests in the first place (eg --disable-test-suite) which will be much less fragile (plus save build time), but for now the ticket seems to have stalled:
