The standard test includes questions about how you look at household chores, budgeting, basic child-rearing stuff (forms of discipline, etc.), socializing with family and friends, conflict resolution, etc.
Generally, the guy fills out a form, the girl fills out the same form, and the priest explains where they are compatible, where they are complementary, and where they might be at odds. The reason why this is helpful is because you go into marriage knowing where the strong points are in your relationship (the compatible & complementary ones) and where there might be some weak spots. For example, if in the conflict resolution stuff, you find out that the wife wants and needs immediate resolution and the husband wants time to sort things out on his own, it's good to know that ahead of time so that they aren't making each other too crazy when they are in conflict.
Your friend should not be so intimidated. It's usually never as bad as the couple thinks it's going to be. (And if it's worse, it's better to find out before the wedding than after.)

RE:
What type of questions are asked in a catholic church compatibility test before marriage?
My friend is getting married and is scared of what is going to be asked and what all goes along with the process so if anyone has gone through the classes or any information on this would be great thank you

Well, to get married in a Catholic Church, you have to meet with the Priest. You have to promise to raise all children Catholic and the spouse has to become Catholic as well. There is no where in the Bible about washing the dishes and taking out the trash. That's B(**sht.

Depends on the church, really. Mostly it's just to gauge your compatibility and to make sure you aren't at each other's throats or run the risk of becoming that way. Not a bad idea, when you stop to think about it.

It is not a "test" and no need to be "scared" either.....The pastor may suggest an RCIA class if one of the engaged people is not Catholic and would like to convert (by heart) to the faith.

In marriage preparation they discuss what marriage is and what the participants can expect in married life. They discuss Christian marriage, love for each other, and the part about children. I hope that you will be very happy.
