Hi Daniel! All MSP devices which have the JTAG pins shared with I/O ports do have and require usage of the TEST pin. This pin simply switches the port hardware between I/O and JTAG. If the device has dedicated JTAG pins, there is no TEST pin and the JTAG TEST line isn't connected. The whole 54xx family has TEST pins.
