A person holds a stone object in one hand. They throw it up and down in the air, in that hand, a few times, to judge the weight/feel/impact of the object.

Does this particular physical action have a (preferably non-sports-related) description?

"Jane 'popped(?)' the stone in her hand to judge its weight."
