My sister in law is a Chinese ethnic ex-Canadian, now British.
One Christmas we did the Knowledge of Britain Test (or whatever it's called) as a game. She scored 100%, the rest of her British* family failed on some questions.🙃

*I've a UK passport, born in UK, but I put White//Irish on surveys.

They have a list of 100 questions and each test offers a random selection of 20, but you have to memorise all 100 stupid answers. Including 3 about Scottish history and ditto Wales, and they had a real problem finding enough questions about Welsh history.

The Life in the UK test is both very easy and very silly. Not as silly as the practice questions you'll find online, but I don't think it is a good test of either Britishness or understanding of Britain

The test is offensive.
It is not about living in the UK but about memorising answers to pointless questions, designed only to satisfy small special interest groups.
"Under which monarch were the legal systems of England and Wales merged?"
After 45 years, how the feck does this help me live here?
