This is not a risk for HIV infection. HIV does not live on surfaces. In an adult, the only ways HIV is transmitted is through unprotected anal or vaginal sex and by sharing drug needles with infected users. As you can see, what you described is therefore not a risk. Which also obviously means there's no reason to test.
