Yes SafeOp is mandatory. SafeOp tech package installs the necessary drivers. The error message tells the necessary driver is missing.

Brake Test is a part of SafeOperation. Without SafeOperation, the Brake Test is meaningless, and also not possible, as you've discovered.
Why are you trying to activate Brake Test on a robot that does not have SafeOperation?
not exactly. Safety Configuration plugin allows access to robots safety settings.
on KRC4 brake test is present on each system. and it can be used to test the motor brake at users discretion if and when needed (if motor brake is a suspect, after motor replacement, after use of manual release device etc.).
it is just that use of BrakeTest is not necessary (and not mandatory) - that is unless SafeOp is installed and activated. and that is what Safety Configuration is showing - if the BrakeTest is required/activated for the sake of safety.

Wow! That mean We can active brake test without Safe Operation?
yes, how else would you check if the motor brake is still good?

Well, personally I just turn off the power and climb on the robot like a jungle-jim. If I can hop up and down on the axes without moving them, it's all good.

But When I run BraketestREQ(), It not carry out and and show on one alarm below? What exactly is happening?
