Relating to the testing, examination, or proving of something, especially in a rigorous or systematic way.
From Greek 'dokimasia' (testing, examination) derived from 'dokimos' (tested, approved), from 'dokein' (to seem, to prove). The term was used in ancient Athens for official examinations of citizens.
In ancient Athens, dokimasia was the tough exam magistrates had to pass before taking office—basically the original job interview where you could get rejected in front of everyone!
