Testing the waters won't fly under the Kindle serials program.
They insist the story be finished because what you buy is a subscription to the full story.
For testing the waters, the author has to go through regular KDP and take their chances on their own. Which some have done. Releasing single episodes at $0.99 and full season bundles in the $5 range. Works well for everybody under KU. But even there, shorting the reader an ending will cost them bad reviews.
Experimentation is good, but experimenting at the reader's expense isn't something Amazon encourages.
