I am unable to Evaluate this integral. Can anyone tell me what is the test we need to perform to tell whether the function is integrable or not:

This function cannot be integrated in terms of elementary functions.
 
Have a look at Liouville's Theorem on Integration in Terms of Elementary Functions if you are interested.
 
There is also something known as the Risch algorithm.
 
There's the ratio test from Calc 2 which might be helpful here.
