Interesting design. The article says nothing about live fire testing.

They appear to have designed the engine for gimbaling: there are 2 big lugs on the combustion chamber 90 degrees apart on the circumference, and the ground handling equipment mount looks like the engine might have a ball joint or something in flight.
