Testbot is the family ship between Test Tube and Bot from the Inanimate Insanity fandom.
Canon[]
Before the events of Inanimate Insanity Season 3. Test Tube built Bot, to be a replica of Bow, a died friend, to cope with the loss of Baby Shimmer, and snuck them onto Boaty.
After Bot flies out of the wreckage of Boaty, They and Test Tube are placed on a team called The Pinkers.
Bot starts to glitch when Cabby was talking to them about chairs, due to their programming blocking out the ability to hear those words, which gave off a glitch. Test Tube gets worried and takes Bot to the Pic-Nix Tables to cool off and get more strawberry ice-cream for the challenge.
Bot learns that she isn't real, via by pulling out a chunk of their head, where the glitch was coming from. Test Tube pushes Bot out of the way of a falling piece of bridge, and later Bot confronts Test Tube about their false identity. Bot becomes upset with Test Tube (Now as Clover) and runs off to the beachside. Test tube apologizes to them at the beach and they make up.
Test Tube modifies their limbs and starts to have a motherly personality towards Bot, wanting to always help them in any way possible and she gets more anxious than usual, about any possible thing relating to Bow possibly upsetting Bot. Test Tube then modifies Bot’s voice, to change it from Bow's voice, to a squishy, happy go-lucky, voice. They also vote with Test Tube against Cabby.
In Test Tube’s Exit Interview, whenever a question about Bot was asked, she responded in a way that a mother would while talking about their kid referring to Bot as “Our Bot” and “The most special and unique contestant this game’s ever seen.”
Bot sees a Replica of Test Tube in Springy's Cereal Box, in the electric room. They hide from it and start to freak out on what Test Tube would say about her new appearance, as since her elimination, They changed their whole appearance. They later meet up with the Real Test Tube on Indefinite Island, and get the courage to show her, the real Bot.
Test Tube looks back at Bot and smiles, with them smiling back as they leave off the boat. When Blueberry faked his death, Test Tube rested a hand on them. Test Tube pairs up with Bot as both eliminated contestants for only which one of them rejoins, while the other one is left alone and still support each other. While Bot and Test Tube talks about how Bot doesn't need to be paired up with her, they both saw a clue next to Blueberry's dead body that has two letters; C-A. Test Tube claims the murderer is Cabby, but on the contrary that it was Candle who caused the murder. Bot tries to ease things and convince Test Tube that Cabby is not what she is right now, but Test Tube disagrees because of the past aftermath she caused whether it's accurate or not. Bot decided to "write down something" and leave her alone. However, once Bot and Cabby still became friendly with Bot's advice and confidence boost being their own new file, they both hugged each other, and Test Tube starts to feel bad and feel more respect for Cabby that she decided to make Cabby feel better by changing her and Bot's evidence about the murder mystery. When Nickel and Clover accuses Bot as the murderer using a 'Secret code,' the two laugh as Test Tube reveals that the 'code' was actually a word search for Bot so they wouldn't be bored on the boat ride.
