Hmm..Someone correct me but Isn't PGN for the whole game and EPD just for one
position?No idea about CB.. You could load them up one by one and then save it
in EPD using Winboard or perhaps some of the EPD readers like epd2diagram or
something..

But i think http://ybishop.cjb.net/ as most of the test suites you want in EPD..

I wonder why do people like to do test suites in EPD? How well supported are
they by commerical programs?

You could use excel to present the results if you use a couple of programs..You
tested with the Chessbase family of programs right?

I suspect you missed a whole lot more..Including My own 'private test suite'
that has  predicted the rankings of SSDF for the past 3 years in a row [to the
nearest 5 elo points] ;P. Seriously, there are lots more , see post by dann
