I'll take a guess that it's not too different from building zope 2: 

$ python setup.py build_ext -i

On windows, you probably need mingw32. This may help:
http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/ploneout/trunk/WINDOWS.txt

To run tests, you can certainly run tests from an instance, e.g. 

$ bin/zopectl -m zope.interface

I'm not sure how they should be run if you have no instance available, but
it's just a matter of finding a testrunner that has the right PYTHONPATH
surely.
