does
context.onearg("Test parameter")
work?
Sorry, I forgot to say that I had tried that version too but also with
no luck.  Also, either version of onerg works as expected if I delete
the context.beginanswer() and the \endanswer lines.

the problem is that you effectively use buffers so you have a different 
catcode regime ... i'm not sure what you want but thsi might give a clue

\starttext

\defineblock[foo]

\beginfoo
     test 1
\endfoo

\startluacode
buffers.assign("temp","test 2")
structures.blocks.save("foo",nil,nil,"temp")
\stopluacode

\useblocks[foo]

\stoptext

there are mechanisms for templates for constructing more meaningful 
content than "test 2" (see test suite)
