That was only meant as an illustration.
The blower door test is usually done (aside from being mandatory for KfW funding) to check whether the vapor barrier is properly connected and airtight, whether everything is sealed with plaster, whether door entrances and electrical outlets are sealed, and so on.
That’s why the test is done when the windows are installed, everything is plastered, and the roof is sealed from the inside. At that stage, corrections can still be made.
In your current condition, no further corrections are possible.
Therefore, as my first comment implied, you don’t need the test anymore. (Unless you’re applying for KfW funding)

Then I take it all back. Now I understand.

Today I took a quick snapshot of the covered balcony/terrace, although the larch wood floor is still missing. The balcony/terrace measures 6 x 5m (20 x 16 ft) at this point, with 3 x 5m (10 x 16 ft) of it covered. Part of the view is shown in the avatar.

Today we started the pile foundation work. Unfortunately, we had to use a diesel generator instead of a construction power supply, but postponing the schedule was not an option since the next available date would have been at the end of September. The work will take 5 working days, and we have a great feeling about the team.

Wow, powerful equipment.

More like a meltdown. It’s a reference to my real name.
In the picture behind the pile of soil, you can also see the roof of the future workshop. It’s almost finished already.
