I edited the wiki to add this is a bad example for autopkgtest. And I'm going to remove the debian/tests folder on the next upload.

Bug#978684: autopkgtest should test the installed package
Source: apk-parser Severity: serious Hi, As pointed in the see autopkgtest specification [1] linked from the release team documentation [2] “the tests must test the *installed* version of the package”. The autopkgtest from this package only uses the source package, and as such violates the specification. Displaying it as an example in the wiki [3] may not be advisable.
