Testimony is telling your personal story, normally in a church setting. A testimony is your declaration to the world that you over came something. Usually told as a heart felt story of how you came to be the person you are today, because of God or Over coming an addiction, etc.

The above is a religious answer. The legal answer is:

Your statement under oath, as a witness in a court proceeding, concerning facts of which you are personally aware, or events you have personally seen, which are relevant to the matter which is before the court. It does not include hearsay, which is an out-of-court statement by another, not under oath, which you heard, or opinions you may have about the people and/or subject matter before the court, unless you are qualified by the court as an expert witness. Legal testimony is not a narrative, or story-telling, but answers given in response to questioning by a lawyer under direct examination. Following your direct testimony, you are subject to cross-examination by the side opposing the side you testified for, and is designed to get the truth before the court. False testimony is perjury, a serious crime punishable by imprisonment and/or a fine.

How do you gain a testimony?

This is my personal thoughts on the subject of testimonies. I have listened to many testimonies about how people have been touched by God and how God has worked wonders in their lives. After listening to wonderful testimonies I have heard other people exclaim, "I wish I had a testimony like that to give." They are wrong because they do have a testimony. They do not have to go through the fires of hell in order to have a great testimony. A testimony does not mean that something bad happened and God made it good. If you have been raised by loving Godly parents and went to a wonderful church and never needed for a thing, then you have a testimony. You are living proof that God has kept you and your family under His protection. You are proof that if you follow Jesus then you can live a wonderful life. Gloom and doom does not mean that their testimony is better than yours. All testimonies are equal. If you can profess that God has changed your life or always guided your life then be joyful. That is your testimony. Also, now this is the important part so pay attention. Your testimony is not your testimony! It is Gods testimony! It is what Jesus has done in your life. Not what you have done with it. Some people thrive on "Their testimony". Give all the glory to God for the good that He has done.
