If so, then in Russian it is called "òåñò" [pronounced as test]. If it is something different, then please explain, so I can give you another answer.
As to "essay". If it means writing some text based on given exact topic to check up ability to express ideas about the subject, then usually we call it "ñî÷èíåíèå" [pronounced as sachinEnije].
As to "open book" - I have no idea what could be meaning of that, so here I expect describing of the exam to give you an answer.

Hi,
Let me give you an example:
you are sitting an exam about Linguistics and you get a question like:
что такое язык?
And you have to give an explanation, often a definition that has existed in your textbooks or notes. something like: Язык есть важнейшее средство для общения. Без языка не может быть общения и тем самым и общества.
And you get another question like:
Какой генетической классификации принадлежит русский язык?
а) германской б)романской г) славянской д) иранской
and there you have to choose the correct answer, in this case Slavic languages.
An "open book" exam is an exam (often physics or mathematics) where you can use a book solve the problems and exercises.
теперь ясно?
