Etymology
Romanian borrowed "a testa" from French "tester" in the modern era, as part of a wave of French loanwords that reshaped Romanian vocabulary in the 19th century. French "tester" itself traces back to the old practice of assaying metals in a small earthen pot, called a "test" in Old French, from Latin "testum" (earthen vessel). That Latin word is closely tied to "testa" (shell, potsherd), the same root that gives English "test".
