I dont know how they do it, but the original Apple Type C cable is GREAT. I use it for software defined radio stuff, where your usb cable can start to act as an antenna and causing interference and reflections. I tested about 6 different brands and vendors and these gave the cleanest signal. Theyre also pretty pricy sadly. Not sure about the speeds and pd, but suspect it should be fine…
It won't tell you the _quality_
It just tell you want the e-marker said.
Yep, the e-marker can effectively report whatever.
You'd need proper hardware capable of testing bandwidth, power, noise, etc, which is prohibitively expensive.

Which isn't helpful if the cable has no e-marker.

That's a great idea.
