No post-op swallow test?
I've been reading updates from others who are newly post-op and see everyone talking about their swallow tests. Both of my friends who had VSG recently with my same surgeon had to do swallow tests as well, but I didn't. Why would that be? They had me sipping water and protein shakes as soon as I was awake, and I didn't do any additional tests in the hospital. Just spent the night and was discharged the next morning. 
When I had my revision in February I had asked my surgeon the next day if he was doing a leak test or as some say a swallow test. He does two checks while his patients are still under just incase something needs to be fixed so there was no need for a third one.
It may be possible that is what your surgeon did so you didn't have to have one done.

FWIW, none of the surgeons in my city or the doctors that I work for in a nearby city do post-op leak tests. They all do the test as the last step of the surgery before closing you up.
It makes sense. Why risk having to open someone BACK UP a day later if there is a leak when you can find it and fix it during the original surgery?!? I personally wouldn't use a surgeon that did a post-op leak test.
