The python package in question is a wrapper for some shared library (wcslib). The goal of the tests is not in the first place that they forgot something in the manifest (things like this are usually already tested upstream), but that the communication between the shared library, the C wrapper and the higher level python modules. This can be tested in the source directory as well. Also, the place of dh_auto_test in the order of steps in dh_build suggests at least to me as a beginner that in-place tests *before* installation are the recommended (or at least the usual) way to go in Debian.
