hippo, I also build a memory test project with the standard .ptf file, and it runs in IDE. This project can test flash, sram and sdram in dev board.
type, begin address , end address, size
flash 0x00000000 , 0x008FFFFF, 8M
sram 0x02000000, 0x020FFFFF, 1M
sdram 0x01000000, 0x01FFFFFF, 16M
The flash and sram are OK, but when I test the sdram, nothing responsing. The following is the information in console.
nios2-terminal: connected to hardware target using JTAG UART on cable
nios2-terminal: "USB-Blaster ", device 1, instance 0
nios2-terminal: (Use the IDE stop button or Ctrl-C to terminate)

This software example tests the memory in your system to assure it
is working properly. This test is destructive to the contents of
the memory it tests. Assure the memory being tested does not contain
the executable or data sections of this code or the exception address
of the system.
