All these tests are necessary for the quality control of cement.
Consistency is required to find the right amount of water.
Initial setting time test deals with hardening and setting of cement, which is necessary for workmen to know.

In basic think, cement should have a binding property, so the quality control depends upon the compressive strength only. So, the compression test is enough.
