The friendly with the Ukraine was a complete test by Low as well
Raphael Honigstein who is the main Germany writer for the Guardian said that 5 minutes before the match started Low completely changed the formation they were used to, a 4-2-3-1 to a 3-2-3-2, because he wanted to test how well the players could adapt with little notice and he wanted options so Germany wouldn't be so easy to prepare for (they have played the 4-2-3-1 for years)
