I NEED HELP IN UNDERSTANDING IF MY NON CITIZEN HUSBAND IS NOW CONSIDERED A CITIZEN BECAUSE WE ARE MARRIED? SHOULD HE STILL TAKE THE CITIZENSHIP TEST.

Yes he should still take the citizenship. And you may have issues depending on why he was in the country to begin with. What kind of visa was he here on?

Marriage does not automatically bestow citizenship on a person.

If he doesn't already have it, he will first have to obtain permanent residency. As OG asked, what is his current status?

Marriage does not change the citizenship of either party, so no, your husband is still not a U.S. citizen.
