As Russell said, the tests inside common are intended to ensure independent functionality of the features within common. There should be tests in your own project that test your project's use of RPC. There has been some discussion on having integration tests for common test official openstack projects for compatibility/breakages.

You might also want to look at and contribute to the thread "best practices for merging common into specific projects".

Are you concerned that the RPC module itself has dependencies on openstack-common which are not being automatically resolved and included when you run update.py?
