If the test station is using the old style mechanical brake rollers do NOT allow them to test the car on it as you run a serious risk of breaking your transmission - It is fitted with a LSD remember. Just politely point out when booking that they will need a Tapley meter and you will drive the car whilst it is being brake tested. I understand that the latest computerised rollers are a different ballgame as the test cycle is tailored to the exact model - I still refuse to take the chance and always insist on a manual road check WITH me driving.
hope this helps

The tester pointed it out to me that "usually, folks would fail your MOT for this..." and in 2 seconds moved the hose back in place, adding "...whilst it is so clear this is just what you need to do..." It's a snap-on clip, easy fix. But then he added "...how on earth a Maserati dealer would miss this during a routine service?" to which I could not agree more (as the care went into service just before hibernating).
