To my best knowledge the only way to test anything on M1 is to buy one. As far as I know there is no virtual solution yet. If you see one, let me know.
As for CRAN there is no official arm64 build yet - the hardware just arrived and I need to setup the nightly builds first before moving to packages. However, Brian Ripley has run a first pass over all packages to give authors chance to look at what breaks on the new architecture - it is listed on the check page in the additional checks section. >From what I can see some of your packages broke on the regular check systems >and have not been fixed after several requests which why your packages were >under threat to be removed, it has nothing to fo with M1 as far as I can tell.
