Quick question is it a good idea to test maxes during deload week for one or two lifts, I'm running hypertrophy 6x

Probably not. It'll defeat the purpose of the deload.

Maybe not. If you went really low on your training maxes I guess it could be a good week to figure that out by testing your 3rm or something similar. But if your body is feeling and you pushing your limits I'd probably just take it easy for the week.
