I found only -w, but will append -C3 as well.

No.

It's not necessary, ecpglib uses libpq as any other program, however it does
its own parsing of the connect options and there are quite a few different
formats you could use so it would be nice to cover that by a few small
tests.

Do you see a possibility to select what test should be run? Maybe no tcp
connections by default but with an additional make-target "checktcp"?
