Not really. That has several flaws. One is that I don't always want to
build and run the tests, because the tests add multiple dependencies.
Another is that your approach isn't using Cabal to build the tests,
which is a significant complicating factor in many cases.
In most of my packages, I have something like this in .cabal:
flag buildtests
description: Build the executable to run unit tests
default: False
...
Executable runtests
if flag(buildtests)
Buildable: True
Build-Depends: HUnit, QuickCheck, testpack
else
Buildable: False
Main-Is: runtests.hs
Other-Modules: TestSqlValue
...
