Hardware Memory Tester

Is there such a thing ? Where you just plug in the memory and it runs various tests and gives it the ok ? If so, where would I obtain one of these ? Cheers !

Essentially theres two types:

The ones they use in RAM factories, test a SIM in a matter of seconds but you can expect to pay in the region of €1,000,000 to €1,500,000.

The other type is either on or under your desk. I can't remember the name of the program, but I've used one before that found problems with memory that the power on test passed.
