Some corrections. :)

This is a testing text. Tämä on koen teksti. --> Tämä on koeteksti.
Those are testing texts. Se ovat koen tekstit. --> Ne ovat koetekstejä. ("Se" is singular, "ne" is plural)

Onko kaksi sisarta kaupungissa? --> This is not wrong but I would change the word order to "Onko kaupungissa kaksi sisarta/siskosta?". This is all in all something that sounds a bit awkward in Finnish, you just don't usually hear any one to say such a thing...

This is a Treo750 device in which I'm writing an informative text. --> "Tämä laite on Treo750, jolla kirjoitan informatiivista tekstiä."
