Had my mot today and the guy put a strange looking device in the passenger footwell and then drove up & down the road for a bit stamping on the brakes.

Its called a 'Taplow' meter and thats the correct method. Dont let them attempt to brake test your four wheel drive car on a two wheel brake test roller.
