Tests in gcse chemistry aqa

Hi all, I am in year 11 and need to know what tests there are to know about . I know that there is the flame test, and there is the halide test, and the test for carbonates, and the test for hydroxides, and the test for metal ions which is adding the barium chloride solution. Is there are another tests which I should know about?????

Nitrate and sulfate, unsaturated hydrocarbons, the common gas tests with a lighted splint, I think that's about it.

the test for metal ions is the flame test
adding barium chloride is the test for sulphates

but ya those are all the tests you need to know
