You should have a look at the following two books:

Hock, W. and Schittkowski, K. Test Examples for Nonlinear Programming Codes.
Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York 1981.

Schittkowski, K. Nonlinear Programming Codes (Information,Tests,Performance).
Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York 1980.
