Historical. Python was obvious choice as simple platform. Python kills two targets (three) at the same time: Python API and C/C++API Decade ago I realised limitations of Python-only tests and started scratching basic C++ tests suite https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/10613/ It's still there and its fairly convenient to use, if you need to run/test/debug GDAL at C/C++ level.
