Looking at

platformio/platformio-core/blob/b9a9fd4f436b84096756a815e93caf5b73e989f3/platformio/builder/tools/piolib.py#L881-L881


      
          build_type = self.env.GetBuildType()

which is implemented as

          def GetBuildType(env):
              modes = []
              if (
                  set(["__debug", "sizedata"])  # sizedata = for memory inspection
                  & set(COMMAND_LINE_TARGETS)
                  or env.GetProjectOption("build_type") == "debug"
              ):
                  modes.append("debug")
              if "__test" in COMMAND_LINE_TARGETS or env.GetProjectOption("build_type") == "test":
                  modes.append("test")
              return "+".join(modes or ["release"])

and adding string escaping per Injection of version of the computed libraries - #2 by maxgerhardt, my first guess would be to use

env.Append(CPPDEFINES=[
  ("BUILD_TYPE",  "\\\"%s\\\"" % env.GetBuildType())
])

with testing code

Serial.print("Build type: ");
Serial.println(BUILD_TYPE);
