Why? Surely there could be some SBC or something for like $100 which you could connect to your computer. The testing software can measure how long it takes to transfer a file. Then it could try charging itself from the computer requesting a higher and higher wattage. I don't see how a device like that could be so expensive.
Here's an example of the data that cable testers can give you: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XFbJD6RE4EY

With an electron app, I have access to your file system and can start deleting things. Yes, some operating systems might gate access but it's not standard or granular enough.
While the file system api in browsers requires your approval.
Sure.
