I think you have it backwards. Tests measure or purport to measure intelligence, but most people can tell a smart person from a not so smart one, though this can vary by domain.
Since intelligence is an arbitrary value on completely different processes in different context, I don’t know if you can call tests a measurement of such construct. Generally, it’s mostly a measure of 1) good memory and 2) the speed of the look up. If you have good memory but slow, you won’t be able to make practical use of the good memory, or at least maximizing its potential. If you have shit memory but fast look up, then you can specialize and do that for the rest of your life and be good at it, improving your look up time over the years. 3) The next layer is measuring the quality of the look up. 1 is dataset, 2 is running time, 3 is tuning the weights.
The term intelligence bears no actual meaning without some form of concrete measurement.
