testable

/ˈtɛs.tə.bəl/ adj

Susceptible to being tested.

Word Origin Test comes from Latin testum 'earthen pot' — because ancient alchemists used pots to test metals by heating them. The idea: a test was originally a trial by fire in a clay vessel. The same root gives us testy (irritable, like a heated pot) and test (as in exam). Testable means 'able to be put to the test, like metal in a crucible.'
