Answer:

The answer is "the irresistible impulse test".

Step-by-step explanation:

The irresistible impulse test is used to check that a person is either guilty or not guilty by the reason of insanity. This test tells us that a person is not guilty because he had no control on his actions and he knew that what he was doing that time is wrong. Thus this test is used to determine either a person is insane at that time or not.
