Step-by-step explanation:

The testament (from the Latin testario mentis, which means "testimony of the will") is the legal act by which a person disposes for after the death of the owner (which may be a family member or a person to whom he has esteemed) ) of all or part of their assets. It is not synonymous with making a dedication. Some authors maintain that it does not come from "testario mentis", but that its origins are found in the word "testis", for which reference is made to the witness; that is to say, the testament has no meaning as a material expression of will, but is an act in which this will is attested. The testament also admits non-patrimonial acts, such as the recognition of children.
