" To obtain relatively demanding games, I chose the time control with 10 minutes
per game and 10 seconds per move."

I must admit that time control worries me when the tester also states:

"I wanted to create a series of tests which make it possible to eliminate the
weak points mentioned above and to make a really comparable Rating List.
Furthermore it was my aim that this Rating List with relatively little effort
can be updated at  the inclusion of a new engine. To avoid problems at the
automatic engine tournaments, engines, which work without problems on the
Chessbase-GUI, are exclusively tested"

Sounds to me like this list will give you a good estimate, but if you want more
accuracy and more thurough rating list, then either the CEGT or the SSDF.
