I noticed that some data files (used to perform some specific tests) are not organized in specific directories of their categories. Some files that I found are audiotest.au, badcert.pem, badkey.pem, cfgparser.1, cfgparser.2, etc (some are even .py files).

I'm working on an organization so they don't get mixed up with the test files, but how the rest of the data files are organized (audiodata, capath, cjkencodings, etc.).

In practice, this hasn't been an issue.  I recommend leaving it alone. Adding more directories is also a nuisance and doesn't really make anyone's life better.
