We also consider abstract problem solving, "liquid intelligence", as in presenting a subject with some task or problem they would reasonably have no experience or memory of in order to see how they respond.
Alternatively, I can imagine a possible (but admittedly unlikely) scenario wherein a test subject solves some fiendishly complex problem, but immediately afterwards has no memory of having done so. A close example was Newton having solved the three body problem, but couldn't recall the solution or what he had done with his notes on the topic.
