Who needs to take the California driver license renewal test?
A few weeks ago, I went to DMV office in California to renew my driver license. They asked me to take an 18-question renewal test. I took the test and passed it and received my renewed driver license, assuming it's a normal procedure for everyone.
Subsequently, I learned that not even one of my colleagues or friends were asked to take this test. In all my life, I've only had two parking tickets. Is that the reason that I was asked to take the test?

What a bastard of a thing to find out!
OK, California law authorizes the DMV to make regulations for "a program of selective testing of applicants" and also requires the renewal notice to tell you if you do. This law came into force in 2011 but was amended in 2018 - I don't know what it said before that.
Clearly such regulations have been made but I'm buggered if I can find them.
However, if you need to do a knowledge test you have to renew in person and you can only renew by mail/online twice before needing to renew in person. While not conclusive, it seems like you have to take the test every 3rd renewal. Since the license is only renewed every 5 years, your time has only just come up and your colleagues or friends haven't yet.

Renew your DL in person
To renew your DL in person:
Complete a DL or ID card application or bring in the DMV renewal notice mailed to you (cross out any old information and write in the current information).
Have your thumbprint scanned.
Pass a vision exam.
Have your photo taken.
Pay the nonrefundable application fee (application and fee valid for 12 months).
Pass the knowledge test(s) (if required). Your renewal notice will indicate if you need to take a knowledge test. You are allowed three attempts to pass each of the required knowledge tests. If you fail the same test three times, your application is no longer valid and you need to reapply. To allow for sufficient testing time, we don’t administer knowledge tests within 30 minutes of closing.
