God made many covenants in the Old Testament, but I assume you are speaking about the "New Covenant" vs the "Old Covenant" which God gave Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai. The "New Covenant" or second was mentioned in the Old Testament several times as a covenant which was yet future. The "New Covenant" started in the New Testament when Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary, was buried, and was resurrected the third day.
The 'Old Covenant" was by Law and the "New Covenant" was by grace.

How many New Testament?
I am not sure of your question. If this does not answer your question please rephase it. There is only one New Testament in the Bible. The two main divisions in the Bible are the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old testament tells the story of the creation of the universe and then tells us about Abraham, the father of Israel and his off-spring. Then it goes through the history of Israel up to about 400 B.C. Through out the old testament we are told of prophecies of a coming Messiah. The New Testament starts out with the four Gospels of Jesus Christ, the Messiah that was told about in the Old Testament. A Testament is the same thing as a covenant. The Jews lived under the old covenant (Old Testament). Jesus Christ started the new covenant (New Testament.) A Testament: Hebrews 9:16- "For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives........" Jesus Christ shed His blood and died for the New Testament to come into force.
