These tests are quite misleading as they typically (didn't find any details) just go through the entire drive writing to it evenly. Which, to be fair is probably not that bad of a test unless you have intimate knowledge about how the controller operates.
But it means that every single cell gets even use and there are no write amplification and it doesn't expose controller or usage characteristics.
Depending on use it will most likely fail way earlier under more normal conditions. Not saying that filling a drive time and time again is completely abnormal, but it the nicest thing you can do to an ssd in many aspects.
