I am looking for a test that scans for personality traits such as anxiety, shyness, aggression and so on.

Is it available anywhere?

Not quite what you had in mind, perhaps, but Myers Briggs tests are generally pretty good.

There are currently no close to 100% tests for these. But if you have your exome sequenced, you can check if you have some of the variants identified in a recent autism paper:

http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/22495306

These are some high impact variants. If you have them, most likely you have autism. But if you don't have them, that doesn't mean you won't have autism because there are still variants to be discovered.
