As long as the new site is on same server as old site, you could:
1. zip all files in old site and save them outside of public_html or whatever your web root is called.
2. copy all test files to the web root.
3. Use the following script to search and replace all urls (IMPORTANT: Before running this script, make a backup of your test site database.
