Does anybody understand what is really tested during
an evaluation, or is it just bullshit?
 

For evaluations up to EAL4,  the evaluation methods are stated in
"Common Evaluation Methodology"(CEM).
http://www.commoncriteriaportal.org/public/files/cemv2.2.pdf

For  evaluations higher than EAL5,  the testing method depends on the
country  you apply for the certification.

I would trust the  ISO15408 evaluated products to do what it states in
its Security Target(ST).
To figure out what is written in the ST is  another problem.
