You probably got the wrong "test" program. There's one built into bash
and there's also an (equivalent) one in in /usr/bin/test.
You need to type
./test
to be sure to run the "test" program in your current directory.
You can use bash's "type" command to see what's happening:
$ type test
test is a shell builtin
