Testing your skills against those of another person is simply another term for competing.

It means using some method of competition, formal, informal, or implied, to discover whether you are equal to another person's, another team's, or another entity's, level of achievement.

The phrase doesn't usually refer to simply observing and comparing performance; there's an implied overt contest, and also the implication of a contest perceived as tough. For example:

'Our team is up against it tonight: they'll be testing their skills against a team that hasn't been beaten in five years.'

'The defence lawyers have a strong case, but they're testing their skills against a seriously good prosecution team; the verdict could go either way.'
