Could it have been a pre entry to service test flight since it circled and landed returned to MEL?

Following its return to MEL last Monday and a test flight yesterday, XF6 operated QF7350/7305 MEL-BNE-MEL overnight. Does this make QF7350 MEL-BNE its official service entry flight departing MEL on 11/7/24 and arriving BNE on 12/7/24?

James, 11/07/24 QF7350, MEL to BNE should be the first.

As long as it a revenue service and not a positioning flight.
