Wow, great song, Diana! That's one of my favorites, and that song was actually helpful to my awakening journey a few years back when I was an atheist. Nightwish also clearly has many inspired songs that come from deep in consciousness, and I especially like their harvest song.
Regarding the concept of testing, one may consider that if there are more advanced consciousness structures than us, they are probably interested in teaching us. However, some parts of teaching is the responsibility of teaching at the proper level of the student as well as not teaching information that can be abused by the student. Testing provides the mechanism for understanding the capability and maturity of the student as well as providing feedback to the student so they see what they know and they don't know so they can go back and study what was missed.
For example, teaching humans nuclear technology was a miscalculation of the maturity of humanity, in my opinion. If there were tests in place to measure the maturity of humanity, the knowledge of nuclear technology could have been withheld until humans would choose to use it for creation instead of destruction. Another example would be trying to introduce someone to the concept of reincarnation who has a strong belief that they are purely a physical body. A test could be as simple as asking, "Do you believe you are more than a body?" to see if they are capable of learning about reincarnation.
Personally, I see every experience as a form of test that provides feedback on what I know and what I don't know as well as who I am and who I am not. I might see someone asking for help and learn how generous I am to help them. I might have someone insult me and learn how forgiving and patient I am. I might have my water heater break and learn how much I know about fixing plumbing. I might have an addiction and learn how capable I am of transforming my patterns of behavior with will and faith. I can imagine that during the harvest to fourth density, how we handle various situations could be examined to see what percentage our polarity is and see if we are mature enough to handle the density of light in fourth density.
Finally, I just want to add that many humans attach shame and guilt to failing tests or not being at the level one wants to be, but I think it's more helpful to accept the truth of where one is, appreciate the feedback, and continue working to improve. I think it's also helpful to understand that each individual might be at a very different place in the learning process or be studying different subjects in different lifetimes which is why there is such diversity of experience.
