The battery light has to do with the charging system. The charging system has nothing to do with emissions or the safety of the vehicle. With that said you should pass. To be sure you could always pull the dash and remove the bulb.

oh yeah. ur rite. ok now another question, could my surge problem with my computer be related to my alternator? cuz one time when i put my alternator back on i forgot to put the bottom bolt and i drove it for two days and one morning it jolted really bad and my gauges went crazy, it wouldnt show speed then did but rpm gauge showd zero but the engine still ran but idled rough.

It is very likely that it is the alternator or a voltage issue. That is also why your battery light is on....
