Are you sure, you want the user chrooted?

If you just want a basic user, who can scp and sftp, you don't need the
user specific line in your /etc/rssh.conf.

The command should be $ scp file_to_upload.txt test@192.168.1.2:

I.e. the home directory is implied by nothing after the colon.

This should be $ scp test@192.168.1.2:file_to_download.txt ./

And if you have files in subdirectories in your /home/test e.g.
/home/test/src/test.c you copy it like:

$ scp test@192.168.1.2:src/test.c ./
$ scp another.c test@192.168.1.2:src/
