I think you mean “Gradient Test” is not part of the mot test?
Performance test most certainly is, like it must meet 16% minimum or exceed it.

Even the old gradient tests were conducted by reversing the vehicle up the ramp – so it was pointing forwards down the ramp with the park brake on.
They were only ever done on transmission handbrakes.

No mot test criteria checks brakes in reverse?
