Those tests have been performed via a joint effort between the QA Team, the DX Team's QA engineer and community testers.

In that list of applications, those have exposed serious and have been blacklisted:
"apport-gtk"
"Banshee",
"deja-dup",
"eclipse",
"inkscape",
"liferea",
"lshw-gtk",
"meld",
"synaptic",
"update-manager",
"vinagre"

In particular, to preserve the ability to update or send bug reports with apport, those critical applications have been blacklisted even if they were not exposing problems: apport-gtk, synaptic, update-manager

Some other applications were not strictly compatible, after this last round of test, but they have not been blacklisted, because the main part of the UI was consistently using the feature.
