What's the objective? The db is broken? Or do you need a special recovery?
if only the dbnames are different and one is valuable (Structure and data), import and export...
I haven't verify and I'm not sure but it seems me impossible to apply the archive on your test DB (which was not in archivelog mode, I presume).
