I went to https://packages.debian.org/stable/ looking for test utilities.
The closest heading I found was "Utilities"

The only relevant entry I found there was "memtester (4.3.0-3)".
I did not find "memtest86+" which I've used many times [It was listed under
"Similar packages:" on https://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/memtester].
I found nothing for testing hard disks or video subsystems <closest being
monitor resolution tests>.
p.d.o has a pretty good search function, this should point you in the
right direction: <https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=memtest>
That search function is not suitable. Back in the days when a
library's catalog was a physical set of card-files there were
typically three "file cabinets" - one each for title, author, and
subject cards. By analogy, p.d.o only has information from "title
cards". I need a subject index.
I don't think there exists exactly what you want. debtags[0] might be
close, but I'm not sure how is the tagging status going. There might
be packages with insufficient tags (or even none at all).
