It does. I guess you're holding it wrong.

Specifically, if you want systemd to be able to tell whether your service is started or starting, your service needs to actually tell it somehow. systemd supports a few different ways of this. The answer linked here shows one of them: "How can I show current service state of systemd service?", it shows how you can do this when writing a service daemon (long-running process) in either a shell script or in C.

The status of your service will be the current status. To see when the service was in fact started, check your journal log:
journalctl | grep test.service
This will show you when the service was started, and at this stage the status would have been in the activating stage.

Try to format your questions on Stackexchange with a definite problem, and some context to help us find a definite solution, rather than creating a discussion. You can read the log line by line after the fact, but that's another rabbit hole that we can't discuss here.
