Python is already incredibly popular when it comes to testing embedded systems, and also incredibly popular when it comes to prototyping algorithms and doing data analysis. From my perspective, C and Python provide a nice complement to one another and whilst I wouldn't necessarily put Python onto a very constrained embedded target, I'd certainly use it for everything else - simulators, build systems, unit tests, requirements tests, nonfunctional KPI testing, end-of-line production testing, calibration, documentation generation, configuration file generation and all that jazz.
