Zusammenfassung:	A test element (114) for detecting at least one analyte in a body fluid is disclosed, specifically for detecting glucose in the body fluid. The test element (114) comprises at least one strip-shaped carrier element (126) and at least one test field (122) having at least one test chemistry (124) for detecting the analyte. The test element (114) has a symmetrical shape such that the test element (114) may be inserted in at least two different orientations into a test element receptacle (118) of a testing device (112). The testing device (112) has a detection device (130). In the different orientations, at least one analyte-induced change in the test chemistry (124) of the test field (122) is detectable.
