If Darius revives Equeste and you chain Icarus Attack, does Equeste still resolve, and can Test Tiger be used after being summoned by pre-errata Rescue Cat?!

Darius revives Equeste, then Icarus Attack is chained by tributing Equeste; separately, Rescue Cat summons Test Tiger and Samnite.
Yes. If Equeste is no longer face-up on the field, Darius no longer negates it, so Equeste can resolve. For Rescue Cat (pre-errata), the summoned monsters' effects are not negated, so Test Tiger can activate and tag into another Gladiator Beast.
If Rescue Cat summons Test Tiger and Samnite, can Test Tiger activate?!
Rescue Cat summons Test Tiger and Samnite in Edison.
Yes, in Edison (pre-errata Rescue Cat), the summoned monsters' effects are not negated, so Test Tiger can activate.

● This card’s effect specifies “and sends it to the GY”. It triggers at the end of the Damage Step, but not if the destroyed monster wasn’t sent to the GY, or if this card is no longer face-up on the field.
The ② effect:
● It can't be activated unless there is a “Gladiator Beast” monster in your Deck.
● It can activate and resolve while “Skill Drain” is applying (without being negated).
● It can be negated by “Royal Oppression” (If it is, this card remains in the Deck (it is not destroyed)).
● “Battling” requires this card to be involved in Damage Calculation
(If this card's attack is negated, the ② effect can't activate).
● If multiple “Gladiator Beast” effects are activated at the end of the Battle Phase,
they don’t go on the same Chain (they each activate, one after another, each on their own Chain).
Vs "Rivalry of Warlords"/"Gozen Match":
● If you have a Gladiator Beast of the same Type/Attribute in your Deck, you can activate the ② effect.
If you do, you can Summon any Gladiator Beast of any Attribute.
