English translation:"Esopo test" - drilling diameter
Explanation:
Unfortunately, this appears to be a company-specific term. It may come from someone's last name, etc.

There is a Peruvian site that describes this particular test. It is left as "Esopo test". The test is to measure the diameter of hole that has been drilled. The measurement is in millimetres.

Here are some links on the site:

You're probably right - in fact Famesa is the company I'm doing the translation for, I asked them and found out how to do the test but nobody said they just leave it in English, so "Esopo test" it now is.

[Aesop] IQ Test


Explanation:
Hi Peter!
I'm probably way off course here [and sincerely, I'm just guessing] but I have a sneaking suspicion this might be an IQ Test from Aesop Marketing Corporation [looks like a trademark so if I'm right, I suggest you consider that for your translation---i.e., put it in English, followed by a brief explanation in parenthesis].
