This is what I would do if the list of modes is small:

\doifnotmode{test1}{\enablemode[test1,test2]}

(and don’t use the \definemode lines)

But if you need many of them, that could get problematic with
many nested \doifmodeelse statements.

In that case, I would use a separate ‘all’ mode, and call the
context script with that as argument in the generic case.


%%% file.tex
\starttext
\startmode[test1,all]
We are in mode test1.
\stopmode
\startmode[test2,all]
We are in mode test2.
\stopmode
\stoptext
%%%


Best wishes,
