There was an arcade game many years ago where that was part of the game play, and this “test” could probably be manipulated in the same way: “ Because the game responded to repeatedly pressing the "run" buttons at high frequency, players of the arcade version resorted to various tricks such as rapidly swiping a coin or ping-pong ball over the buttons, or using a metal ruler which was repeated struck such that it would vibrate and press the buttons.”
