I stand corrected, you are indeed right. To quote [1]:
   The test attribute marks a function to be executed as a test. These
   functions are only compiled when in test mode.

Maybe I misremember some edge case where this was not the case, or maybe 
it was the way I described some time ago and they changed it. TIL.

Anyway, I still think it is good practice to put tests in a separate 
module, as it cleanly separates test code from production code. For a 
single function this does not make much difference, but maybe somebody 
else will add some more tests, extract common test setup code into 
helpers, etc. - then they would need to touch the existing code anyway 
and move it in a module. In other words, I think it's good to do it the 
'clean' way right from the start. :)
