'''Testimony''' was a practice for the [[glass avatar|glass people]] to create more of their kind. They took the people who were near [[death]], duplicated their memories into their [[Glass avatar]], and then put back to their human bodies at the moment of their death with no pain and distress, or any memory of the Testimony process. The dead then could be uploaded into the avatar, and became a Glass person.

You may be looking for Testimony Foundation.

One's testimony was their complete truth on the matter at hand.

While Dalek Progenitors would normally only activate to a genetically pure Dalek, they possessed a failsafe that would activate them if the Doctor, the Daleks' greatest enemy, gave his testimony that those seeking to activate the device were Daleks. (TV: Victory of the Daleks) When the last three survivors of the New Dalek Empire (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) were deemed impure by the last Progenitor, they were forced to use the Eleventh Doctor's testimony to activate the device. (TV: Victory of the Daleks)

In the far future, the Testimony Foundation was set up on New Earth to take the testimonies of all of humanity's dead, (TV: Twice Upon a Time) a process that the Twelfth Doctor likened to humanity having built their own version of the Matrix. (PROSE: Twice Upon a Time)
