I believe (didn't check so many packages), in most cases
installing the build dependencies is the better option:

1. There might be testing frameworks to install as b-d, but
    not as Depend.

2. Many unit test suites check various variants and optional
    behaviour, that might be separated in different binary
    packages (think of myapp-postgres and myapp-mariadb, etc.)

Maybe as an option for some packages?

Or a different kind of test, running on top of piuparts?
