I want to test my hardware function and find errors.

Is there any System Testing tool available for Ubuntu ?

A live-CD which is used to convince to install it should contain a hardware compatibility test. Please tell them. After typing an install command like below, one should be told where to click next to execute the program. Please tell them (that other systems do plenty of that). – Papou May 16 '16 at 14:02

@Silicomancer For that may want to use Stress. To install use apt-get install stress. See stress manpage for more details. – Mitch♦ Oct 3 '17 at 19:28

You can use

Phoronix Test suite

It is best testing Utility for Linux Systems.

It is having a Dash icon. But runs in terminal. Takes few hours to run a comprehensive test. Finally gives a report.

Install via the software center

Or:

sudo apt-get install phoronix-test-suite

Is there any test suite that can run in a few minutes? – chovy Dec 12 '16 at 4:10

Run HW Probe Tool on your host: https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxhw/hw-probe/

The probe includes outputs of several Linux diagnostics tools (smartctl, memtester, etc.), hardware listers (hwinfo, dmidecode, biosdecode, etc.) and system logs (Xorg.log, dmesg, etc.).

Probe example: https://linux-hardware.org/index.php?probe=0b29192f95
