Yes, not everything is in the manual.

FWIW, there should be a linter soonish verifying that #:tests? is respected:
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48320>. A sample of
'./pre-inst-env guix lint --no-network --exclude=derivation'
output ('derivation' is slow):

gnu/packages/astronomy.scm:898:5: python-jplephem@2.15: the 'check' phase should respect #:tests?
gnu/packages/astronomy.scm:690:5: missfits@2.8.0: sentences in description should be followed by two spaces; possible infraction at 268
gnu/packages/attr.scm:43:5: attr@2.4.48: the 'check' phase should respect #:tests?
gnu/packages/audio.scm:5208:5: ableton-link@3.0.2: the 'check' phase should respect #:tests?
gnu/packages/audio.scm:2484:2: audio-to-midi@2020.7: 'python-cython' should probably be a native input
gnu/packages/audio.scm:2488:6: audio-to-midi@2020.7: the source file name should contain the package name

Greetings,
