I assume you mean testing oneself using questions of the book(s)? No, I haven’t find any test to do that, nor have I made one myself. Thank you though because it never came to mind I could try that method, anything that gets rid of that insecurity would help free up the backlog for more material.
You could try what I do. I keep a paper notebook or a notepad app on my phone, or pc with me when I read the text. After a paragraph or a chapter, I write down all the possible questions that can be created. After finish reading the book or a significant portion of the book, I try to write down all the answers to those questions.
I do something similar, I read the whole thing first though. It’s just such a problem to even start it or get to writing afterwards. Especially since I’ve been off medicine for around a month. Though, I was thinking of printing the material out on expendable paper and writing on it, and make notes as you’ve described yours.
Thanks for the Joplin suggestion. I immediately got into writing down what I read in “What Is To Be Done?”, feeling less insecure and more confident about it. Finally medicated too, so that helps. Thanks, comrade.
Have you tried the ‘q&a’ method?

Nice idea. Good luck. I use notion (FOSS alternative: Joplin) to create collapsible questions and Answers like this.
