How can I get all children of a html tag with a certain name?

Let's assume I have a <div> which looks like this

<div id=test>

    <input name=test1/>

    <input name=test2/>

</div>

if I have the div element, how can I get any child with name test1 or test2? I tried

div.getElementsByName('test1')

but that does not work?

document.querySelector('input[name=test1]')

Or if you want to target a specific child of a specific element:

var test = document.querySelector('#test')

var test1 = test.querySelector('input[name=test1]');

window.console.log(test1)
