"Not all tests can be executed in-browser, as some tests rely on automation (e.g. via testdriver.js) that is not available when running a browser in a normal user session."

One can try to reason which features aren't available in a normal user session, but listing them explicitly saves that effort.
This helps distinguishing actual bugs from technical limitations.
