Test for what? guy says i gave him herpes but i couldnt since i've had no genital symptoms?

Still possible: Some herpes sufferers have no symptoms, and it can be spread even if there are no active blisters present. That does not mean you have it, however, or even if you do, that you gave it to this guy. Your doctor or local public health clinic can run tests and help you sort this out.
