This group will contain those tests that can be run manually.
If necessary, some tests may belong to several groups simultaneously.
For example, SDRAM test may run on both noarmal and power-fail
booting. On normal booting, SDRAM test may perform a fast superficial
memory test only, while running on power-fail booting it may perform
a full memory check-up.
For example, SDRAM test may run in both normal and "slow test" mode.
In normal mode, SDRAM test may perform a fast superficial memory test

Also, all tests will be discriminated by the moment they run at.
