Testing Dummies would be great, but absolutely no need for customization. That just adds a huge amount of work for basically no pay off. There isn't enough of a difference between families to be worth including. There is no reason to worry about testing against non-NMs. Elemental and weapon resistances vary by species, and by individual NMs. The stuff you want them to make a massive complicated menu for (because it would be both massive and complicated since it's SE we're talking about lol) can all be factored in after the fact IF any of it actually applies to what you are trying to figure out if you can handle fighting.

Players really only need +5lvl increments from 119 and up really, and we could probably narrow that down even further. Could get away w/ just 119/129 tbh, since it seems rather ridiculous to expect a full party/alliance to team up to test on a dummy when they should just be killing actual targets. Maybe a 3rd lv140 one in a different location? <,<

Adding just two dummies, one lv119 and one lv129, is all that is actually needed, with an optional lv140. Basically, we're talking clvl WAR/WAR rocks with infinite HP, and no variations from baseline defensive stats (think like Reive rocks but w/o any DT- mods.) Some method for the system to parse and report the data would also be needed... So, an NPC of some sort that initiates test mode and that can give a breakdown of what happened during the testing period. Maybe tie start/end times to a specific emote? XD I think that would actually work at least.

Also, might be nice if each dummy used it's own zone for test purposes. Maybe a copy of Mordion Gaol? XD
