I certainly do such testing (hand-wrapped, because it doesn't
seem to cost too much time to do so.  Usually I develop in Python
and accumulate my tests there, then write the C equivalent, and
move the tests to the C code.  I've done this for programs that
were always to have become C programs as well as for those things
I intend to wrap as Python modules.
