A test is generally qualitative. That is, you are testing for the presence or absence of some particular property.

A measurement is quantitative. This is when you are trying to determine the amount or extent of some quality. A measurement can be represented by some number.

A test light might tell you that there is voltage across two terminals.

A volt meter could give you a measurement of how much voltage there is across the terminals. For instance, 5 volts or 12 volts or 120 volts.
