"Guinea pig" is a common name for a person who is being used to demonstrate something or being used as a test subject because guinea pigs are often used as these themselves: their gentle dispositions and intelligence levels make them an ideal test subject in animal testing or other practices.
Because guinea pigs are believed to be widely used in laboratory experiments, when someone says you're a guinea pig they're telling you in a joking way that they (or someone else) is testing something on you, e.g., you're the first to taste something they cooked.
somebody tests with you something that haven't been proved yet with anyone
