The problem is likely order of code running. Settings won't have been
read in yet. You need to use jquery's s ready() function. IMO you should
put this directly into your test.js file and not embed inline javascript
at all. If your javascript is going to do a .write() or something, you
are best off using a <div> that will be replaced. So at the bottom of
your test.js, something like this:

// $(function() { }) is a synonym for $.ready().
// This ensures that the code is not executed until the page is rendered.
$(function() {

var settings = Drupal.settings.mymodule;
myfunction(settings.name,settings.total);

});
