You're correct. This is exactly what test drives are for. They usually also check your driver license and credit score when testing higher cost vehicles to make sure you're responsible and can even afford to buy it in the first place. There are also dealerships that offer extended test drives for trusted customers where you can keep a car for a few days, however I'm not sure if Tesla does anything like this.
