Some of them are actually much older: https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qt.git/tree/tests/manual The whole point of a manual test is for things that can't be reliably tested in an automated way. Take two examples: QSysInfo and QStorageInfo. There are some aspects of both classes that can be tested in an automated way, like the consistency of results, but most of it can't. So we have manual test tools that allow us to quickly get all the output from those classes and see if there's something unexpected, compared to other tools and system configuration.
