Description

At the moment, in gh actions, we run the `make test` target only on linux because some of the test require virtualization, and the only runners allowing this are the linux runners.

These testing targets could be reworked. We should be running all the tests which do not need virtualization on macos/linux/windows, and then run the tests which require virtualization on a linux runner since it is the only place where they can run.

Research direction

Review the GitHub Actions workflow definitions and the Makefile's `make test` target to identify which tests require virtualization. Run the existing test target and inspect the current Linux-only workflow behavior. Done means non-virtualization tests run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, while virtualization-dependent tests remain on a Linux runner.
