Great!  I think the right test file is Lib/test/test_urllib2.py (the test files were not renamed in Python 3 when some modules were renamed); there is a test_redirect method that should be the right place.  Senthil will confirm.

Remember to work from a 3.3 checkout (i.e. the default branch of http://hg.python.org/cpython).  More help about contributing (like where to find files) is at http://docs.python.org/devguide.
