USB Selective Suspend Test (xHCI)
This test evaluates the selective suspend abilities of the USB device.
You can use this test to conserve power by suspending a device's port when the device is not being used. To support this new feature, a device must maintain its internal state when its upstream port has been suspended and be able to function correctly when its upstream port is resumed. This test makes sure that the device responds correctly on its control pipe at its currently assigned device address after the suspend/resume cycle of a port. Depending on the class of the device, you can perform additional steps to make sure that the device responds correctly on other endpoints. This test runs only on devices and hubs.
