The ora_s000_TEST is the background process used to refresh the snapshot. IT should wake up only once a while depends on the refresh interval. However, you can keep the process alive by set the "snapshot_refresh_processes" in the initTEST.ora file. Check that.
ora_d000_TEST is the dispatcher process for SQL*Net V2. I don't know much about this one. But there is a parameter in the init.ora files called "mts_servers" which I think determine the number of dispatcher to startup by default. Check the manual on this parameters.
