testimisel

Testimisel is an Estonian noun form that means “in testing” or “during testing.” It is the adessive singular form of the noun testimine, which denotes the act or process of testing. The word is formed from the verb testima (to test) with the nominalising suffix -mine, plus the adessive ending used to express location or circumstance.

In usage, testimisel functions as a circumstantial modifier, indicating the circumstances under which another action takes place. It is common in technical, scientific, and procedural texts to describe what happens during the testing phase or during a test-related activity. The construction is often used to reference data, observations, or events tied to the testing period.

Examples of usage include:

- Testimisel avastati mitu viga. (During testing, several defects were discovered.)

- Testimisel kogutud andmed näitavad trendi. (Data collected during testing show a trend.)

- Uurimus põhineb testimisel saadud tulemustel. (The study is based on results obtained during testing.)

Relation to other forms:

- Testimine refers to the act or process of testing in general.

- Testimist is the partitive form, used to refer to some or part of the testing.

- Testimisele or testimisele might appear in constructions indicating direction or recipient related to testing in some sentences.

Testimisel is most often encountered in formal or technical Estonian, where precise circumstantial meaning is required.
