The problem is that lyx runs 'bibtex Thesis' while when using chapterbib
you need to run 'bibtex Test' and 'bibtex Test2'.
A solution is to use the following script:
-------------------
#!/usr/bin/tcsh
foreach file (*.aux)
/usr/bin/bibtex $file:r
end
-------------------
Save the script into a file called bibtex, and put it somewhere in your path
before /usr/bin (so the result of `which bibtex` is not give /usr/bin/bibtex).
You should also remove the \usepackage{chapterbib} from the preamble of
Test.lyx and Test2.lyx
