I created a Solana token with a test wallet/account. Now I want to transfer authority to another account and delete the test one. Is there any way to do that?

You can do that through spl-token authorize on the CLI, or the SetAuthority instruction https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-program-library/blob/2d770628ef0fc05c22b36404cfd9aebd3b59c110/token/program/src/instruction.rs#L977
Note that it is an antipattern to transfer the ownership of an Associated Token Account: https://spl.solana.com/associated-token-account
In that case, the best practice is to create an associated token account for the recipient's wallet, transfer the tokens, and then close the first account.
