default-directory is set to c:/python25/Lib from your previous attempt.
Specifying the path to test.py should work:

python c:\python25/Lib/pdb.py c:/yourpath/to/test.py

If you don't specify the path to test.py you need to make sure that
default-directory is the directory test.py is in, e.g., by doing M-x dired
in that directory first.

Why not just do:

pdb c:/yourpath/to/test.py

or

pdb test.py

?

as the default name for gud-pdb-command-name is just "pdb".
