Depends on what you test for. Are you testing the Microsoft Experience with Windows 7/8? If so, that should be in your Control Panel if you already have it. If you do not, it would be advisable to reach out to Microsoft and see about downloading their Microsoft Experience software. You will need silverlight, which is provided in the same place.
It will usually be under your System Tools or System area. If you have an Apple computer, you're likely using some kind of Mac Operating System (MAC OS) or if it is not then you're likely running Windows. For Windows computers, go to Control Panel, then click on System & Security and then again on System. Eventually you'll reach a screen telling you all the specifications for your computer hardware and your OS. It should say it right at the top. Also, computers often display this information while they are booting up.

Displaying the name of your operating system usually means already knowing what it is since different operating systems have different methods of getting to the name and version as well as different methods of logging on.
Normally when an operating system starts, a splash screen is displayed showing the name of the operating system. Many systems, when logging in, will show some text with the name and version of the operating system. On windows, the information is available via the control panel. Starting the command line interface will also give some information as will the "ver" command. On unix or linux the uname command with the "-a" option ("uname -a") in a terminal session will give the information about the system, distribution, and version. A terminal session is the linux equivalent of a command prompt.
It depends on what kinda of computer you have. For example, a microsoft computer will most likely have a Windows OS but some people may change the operating system, since its not impossible.
