What's the name of this psychological test where you.

1. Read and pronounce words in three colors (red, blue, green). - Words and colors match. - Say word and color (which are the same).
2. As above - Words and color now do not match. Say the color. - If the word is in a circle - Then say the written name.
3. As above - now words and colors do not match - alter (even and odd) between saying the color of the word and saying written word.

I have myself taken the test. Perhaps I remember some things wrong.
