Here is your issue: the source file should be a proper *path* to the
vmdk file. This does not look like a valid path: '[datastore1 (2)]
test1/test1.vmdk'

Libvirt's default store is in /var/lib/libvirt/images. So, first try
placing your image there and try:

    . . .
    <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/test1.vmdk'/>
    . . .
