I am trying to setup sudo rights on a specific user (username: test), to

Please, trim the quoted part of your emails.
sudo useradd -c "JUST A TEST USER" -d /home/test -s /usr/bin/ksh test2
it only works if I enter the root passw0rd, instead of the test user's
passw0rd. Why would this be ? The documentation says that it will
ask for a password, but for the passw0rd of the user that is running the
sudo command.
Did you read the file? Look here:
# In the default (unconfigured) configuration, sudo asks for the root password.
# This allows use of an ordinary user account for administration of a freshly
# installed system. When configuring sudo, delete the two
# following lines:
Defaults targetpw # ask for the password of the target user i.e. root
ALL ALL=(ALL) ALL # WARNING! Only use this together with 'Defaults targetpw'!
Do remove or comment out those two lines, as you were "told" :-p
