Your question is not phrased well, so I can only guess at what you're asking 
for.  If you want the above URL reference to access a specific webapp, 
different than the one targeted by www.example.com, then create another <Host> 
element in conf/server.xml with an appBase pointing to a different directory 
than the one the default <Host> uses.  Under that second appBase, deploy your 
desired webapp with the name ROOT so it becomes the default webapp for the new 
<Host>.  Read all about it here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/virtual-hosting-howto.html

Your clients will need some means of resolving www.test.example.com, of course; 
that can be either a proper DNS entry in whatever DNS boxes they access, or an 
appropriate entry in the /etc/hosts file of each 
(C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts for Windows boxes).
