I think either you or your friend has misunderstood. 
There are a number of physics theories where we are 
rapidly approaching the point that there are no 
PRACTICAL tests we can apply, not that there are no 
hypothetical tests imaginable. Physicists are aware of, 
and disturbed by, the problem with this situation, and 
they like it no better than you do.
