If the journalist is correct, it would suggest that:
1. Only those pax without a coid test 72h prior departure are tested.
2. If tested at CDG, you don't need to wait for results, just give your address and contact number.
3. The writing would suggest that transit pax are also tested. But it is not clearly stated.
Unless you are flying from the US. No one, regardless of nationality, boards a plane from the US without a negative covid test. From Delta's site, now:"All passengers traveling to or through France are required to complete an attestation of travel form (English / French) and Health Declaration form to be presented to Immigration officers at Paris-CDG upon arrival. Please print and complete these forms before arrival at the airport, as copies at the gate will be limited. For more information, visit the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, opens in a new window.

All passengers with France as the final destination from or through the United States from August 1 onwards (departing the US on or after July 31) must provide evidence of a negative result from a PCR test taken within 72 hours of departure. Please be prepared to confirm your test results prior to boarding. This applies to all passengers regardless of nationality.

Please note that there is a grace period when departing the US any date between July 31 to August 4 where travelers can receive testing upon arrival in France. After the grace period ends, all travelers must present a negative COVID-19 test to board."
