We normally don't do that when ABI is compatible. I think you can push
it to main if you first do basic testing, eg verify that apk does not
completely breaks, test s_client against some server and test some
application like curl or equvalent that https is not totally broken.

Move it to testing first if you think there are some reason to
believe that it might break things or if you know that you will not be
able to quickly fix any potential breakages.
