Found this here: INFP or INFJ Test
I'm not any of the types, but I'm intrigued by the idea and the questions.
What do you all think?

I liked the last question... Heart of a child or soul of a sage?
That was hard to answer; people tell me I'm wise, but a truly wise person isn't obstinate, adhering to her values over the truth.
The struggle of feeling.
I complained on PerC why I don't like it. It's obviously written by a Fe type (probably NTP) and it paints Fi from a shallow, outsider view, but phrases the answers in "I" terms as if to reflect an INFP's thinking (which it fails to do). It describes very little Ne for INFPs too.
Also, it's filled with a lot of false dichotomies &/or questions with no appealing answer. I tended to pick what I could tell was supposed to be the INFP answer in those cases, but in many, "neither" or "both" was the honest answer.
I do't think this will help with mistyping, especially as the goal of those who write these tests seems to be to identify mistyped INFPs who identify as INFJ. If that is the goal, then it's especially not effective. Who knows what I would've typed had I not known the common biases among people into these theories & how they will likely describe a type & functions.
This same site also has a youtube video where they contrast a supposed INFJ (actress Cary Mulligan) with a supposed INFP (Andrew Garfield). I don't think Garfield is INFP, for one (ENFP, perhaps- he is way too open with his feelings & adapting his sitting to mirror Mulligan is an extroverted thing to do), and the contrast is poorly done because it paints Fe as considerate & selfless & Fi as absorbed & pushing its own values. There are many FPs who are the former & FJs who are the latter...
Their general celebrity typings are okay, with some types overrun with mistypings but others giving an overall good overview of what a type will vibe like. The mistypings seem due to cherry-picking & perhaps poorer grasp of some types.
And it irks me that all of the INxx types except INFPs have it noted that they are "amongst the types with the highest average IQ". Why do INFPs not receive this comment when in every study the type is listed as top 4 with the other INxx types? This bias is tiring to see over & over again.
I got the same.Just for kicks...59% INFJ | 41% INFP.
