Bethany,

Have you actually done this test yet? I was very resistant to the idea before I first did it, mainly because my BG was unstable at the time. And I couldn't see how this would help. But there could be any number of confounding factors here. And speculating on what might happen only messes with your mind. Doing the basal test exercise will enable you to separately focus on basal and bolus insulin action. You could be surprised at what you find. And the exercise will definitely help you use the most approrpriate tactics.
