FYI, not really, it is possible to fully automatically test console's output/input using WinAPI functions like WriteConsoleInput, GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo, ReadConsoleOutputCharacter

very recently I wrote such test, you can look at it as example http://review.source.kitware.com/gitweb?p=KWSys.git;a=blob;f=testConsoleBuf.cxx;hb=HEAD

it tests all 3 cases when output is actual console, redirected pipe and file.
