a change that occurs in a place during time to compare a thing with a regular pattern

Test (noun) means: a change that occurs in a place during time to compare a thing with a regular pattern. It emerges from change, event, compare, regular: When a change occurs and a compare with a regular pattern is made, a result follows. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 10, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
