@Tom,

The Ubuntu-certified list is generated by Canonical and is the
authoritative list. Absence from this list means that the system in
question has not been rigorously tested.

There are other lists that the community builds, which are "best
guesses". Some of those use "System Testing" but that's not a prerequisite.

The statement that "if it is not on the list then it almost certainly
will work too" is erroneous. A search through Ubuntu forums, Launchpad
Answers, and Ask Ubuntu will yield thousands of counter-examples.
