In essence, yes. I tend to install such scripts, when needed, in /usr/share/doc/<package>/ or a sub-directory thereof, such as examples/. I *think* such a test is also suitable for the autopkgtest framework: https://packages.debian.org/sid/autopkgtest Using this framework would ensure your test is ran automatically on occasions, just not during the build.
