A testimony is an attestation as to the truth of a matter, whether it be based on hard evidence, faith or some other means. Evidence is the basis of truth or objective facts. The quality of evidence can vary greatly and can often be disputed, even if objective, but a testimony, due to it's personal nature, is less wavering.
I must state, that these terms could be used in many contexts and therefore I set forth just one. Additional facts are necessary for a more detailed answer.

Testimonial is a person's perspective on an incident or witness.
Evidence can be a physical or testimony but physical evidence is generally given credence.

Just guessing, testimonial is a statement by someone who has an experience of conversion, etc. to share. Evidence is probably more scholarly/research information on the "truth" of the message in the Bible.
