To back this up,
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_test_suites says:

  If the source code of the package provides a test suite, it should be
  executed in the %check section, whenever it is practical to do so.

It is quite common for such test suites to usefully detect things like
architecture-specific issues or incompatibilities with new compiler versions,
even in header-only libraries like this one.
