As you suggest, the btrfs-progs tests are primarily to verify userspace 
functionality after build; they aren't really designed for the more 
general case.  For that, btrfs, along with ext4 and of course xfs, now 
use xfstests, which isn't just for xfs any more.  In addition to the 
general filesystem functionality tests, xfstests contains a full suite of 
btrfs-specific tests for btrfs-specific functionality, and patches to 
xfstests to catch new btrfs regressions should they occur again are not 
only routinely seen on this list, but are often actively requested, if 
not originally posted along with the patches fixing whatever btrfs bugs.  
If you search the list archive on xfstests you'll see many examples.
