If you were issued a test in school, and you failed, would you automatically jump to the conclusion that your teacher must be immoral? You wouldn't do that, if you had any sense. You just failed the test, plain and simple. In this case, your ineptitude says nothing about the morality of the teacher.
It depends on the test. If the test is that teacher infects you with anthrax then the teacher must be immoral. Just as God is immoral when he tests people with plagues and earthquakes. He could give people tests that are not sadistic.
I really fucking hate the "test" argument from believers.
A test is something you take in school or college. A test is something you take to get a job. A test is something you take to get on a sports team. I don't see how it was a "test" for 6 million Jews including unarmed children, women and men, whom were innocent and needlessly murdered, not to mention the estimated 50-60 million dead word wide as a result of WW2. If anyone arguing the existence of an all loving God wants to argue that it is all a "test' then that puts humans in the position of being mere lab rats.
