The failures in test_genscript are due to running the tests from the source
directory; this causes the sources (in particular,
_pytest.standalonetemplate) to be imported with relative paths, which are
then no longer correct once pytest chdir()s to a temporary directory during
the test run.

I attached a patch which illustrates how to fix the problem.

There is one other test failure, a failing doctest in
testing/cx_freeze/tests/test_doctest.txt; this is a result of the 2.8.5
sdist being prepared on Windows, causing all of the source files to have
"dos" (CRLF) line endings instead of "unix" (LF) line endings. I'm not sure
exactly what the best way to fix this is, but I guess a patch to change the
line-endings in the file should do the trick.
