Right, we do not test every addon when we do a release. Our testing currently involves using the sample plugin we shipped (which will ensure the API isn't broken by the release). We don't test each plugin because of the number of them and also the evil things quiet a few of them do (like hard coding function offsets into their dlls, which is extremely fragile).

To my knowledge, and Alfred can speak for himself, most developers don't test with addons. They leave that for the addons' dev team. I recall that being Valve's general policy. It's easy to tell a "fake" bot from a real one when they have a ping.
