As to someone "testing" me, I don't play that game at all. Ever. I'm not willing to stake my life or those I may be protecting on my interpretation of someone's threat as anything but a threat. Some dumbass wants to impress his girlie or his broheims by threatening me in a situation in which I cannot negotiate de-escalation, leave, and/or get my wards to safety, he gets fucked up, end of story.
