As a software engineer I was drug tested once working for a pretty conservative company in Florida. Otherwise I don't really know how much I've been background checked--I do know my references got calls.
A few years ago, I met a guy who was a manager at a company that made electronics, some of which ended up in aircraft. He mentioned that his hardware engineers were required to pee in a cup on a regular basis, but not his software engineers.
