Description Areg Beketovski 2008-04-04 05:19:53 UTC 
According to the specification of the macro G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_CAST() "Checks that instance is an instance of the type identified by g_type and emits a warning if this is not the case." Whenever instance structure type does not match the type id, passed in for a second parameter, the warning is not get emitted.

G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_CAST() does generate a warning.
G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() does not warn.
your test uses G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() instead of G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_CAST(), so needs to be fixed.
