What was Malcolm's test of mac-duff?
The future King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093] wanted the throne of Scotland. He didn't want to make the mistake of his father, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040], and trust the wrong people. Indeed, his father had trusted Macdonwald, who rebelled against his sovereign and his country; the Thane of Cawdor, who betrayed his king and his country to King Sweno of Norway; and Macbeth, who killed him. So Malcolm wanted to make sure that Macduff had no ambitions other than to avenge the murder of his entire family and household under Macbeth's orders.Also, Malcolm's theory was that Macduff praised Macbeth highly (and the feeling was returned), even though he is now a victim of Macbeth's tyrannical power (when Macbeth had his family killed). "This tyrant .../was once thought honest, you have loved him well" (12-13); it is because of the reasoning presented in this quote that Malcolm thinks that Macduff might want to betray him to Macbeth.

What was the summary of Macbeth?
Macbeth is a play made in 1606. It about Macbeth being king by murdering. The play started with Macbeth and Banquo meeting the witches that tell them that Macbeth shall be king. Lady Macbeth knew about that and because of her impatience, she thought about killing the king. Luckily, King Duncan had already said that he is going to Macbeth's castle. So as Lady Macbeth told Macbeth her plan to kill the king. When the mission was completed, Malcolm(king's son) fled to England. Macbeth wanted Banquo dead because he was him when they saw the witches. Banquo was dead but his son Fleance (Banquo's son) managed to escape. Lady Macbeth expected that she could handle the pressure of the murder but she couldn't, so she committed suicide. Now, Macbeth was alone, so he was frightened. He went to the witches for further explanations of what's happening. One of the witches said 'No man born of a woman shall hurt you.' Another witch continued 'But beware, since the trees are moving' Now, Macbeth was satisfied. Macduff (one of Macbeth's men) felt uncomfortable about what's happening so he fled to England to rejoin with Malcolm to make an army to attack Macbeth. Macbeth took his army and when they passed from infront of the forest, Macduff and Malcolm appeared surprisingly with their army. Macbeth said 'Don't waste your time, since no born from a woman can hurt me.' Then Macduff said 'I wasn't born, Iwas taken out by the caesarean section.' Macbeth knew it was the end of his faith so Macduff killed Macbeth and swooshed his head off holding it and said 'This what will happen to you'
Who kills Macbeth for Revenge and to restore the throne to the proper ruler?
Macbeth was killed by Macduff because Macbeth had send men to kill (successfully) Macduff's wife and son. Also, since Macbeth was the tryant ruler of Scotland, Macduff (and the English forces brought by Malcom) were in battle with Macbeth and his men.
What happened to Malcolm by the end of Macbeth?
Historically, no. Macbeth was succeeded by his stepson Lulach, who only reigned a short time. Shakespeare cut Lulach out as an unnecessary character (although we do hear that Lady Macbeth has "given suck" which must refer to him.) and had Malcolm succeed Macbeth. Historically inaccurate but dramatically more satisfying.
Why does Malcolm at first suspect Macduff of treachery?
Malcolm suspected Macduff of having designs on the crown and throne of Scotland. In Act 4 Scene 3, Macduff had arrived in England from Scotland. He had joined the group of discontented Scotsmen that had formed around the subsequent King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093]. Malcolm wanted to take the throne of Scotland away from Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057]. He wanted someone else to kill and behead Macbeth. But he didn't want Macbeth's murderer to gain the Scottish crown and throne. Malcolm knew that Macbeth had had Macduff's entire family and household murdered. So he wanted Macduff to be Macbeth's murderer. But he wanted to make sure that Macduff would do the killing only to avenge his lost family and household. He wanted to make sure that Macduff wouldn't try to claim the crown and throne as his.

Who were Macbeth's chief opponents and what has happened to each?
At the start of the play, before meeting the witches, Macbeth is still loyal to Duncan. The forces of Norway and the rebel Macdonwald (whom he kills in battle) could be considered his adversaries at this point in the play. After he meets the witches and begins to entertain thoughts of regicide, anyone who stands between him and power becomes his adversary (Duncan, Malcolm, Banquo, Macduff...) One could probably make an argument as to why Lady Macbeth might be considered Macbeth's adversary as well.
