I have chart (using chartjs), and a switch button. When I click on the switch, new data will be added to the chart (and erase the previous one). But what I’m trying to do, is when I click back on the switch, it’ll display the previous data.
Here is my code :

chart.update();

Your updateChart function is only making the chart use the test2 data and it’s not smart to revert it when unchecked. You need to explicitly code it:
Change the onclick handler to onchange and change the function’s name:
<input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="checkBox" onchange="toggleCategories(event)">
...
function toggleCategories(e){
if (e.target.checked) {
chart.data.datasets[0].label = 'My test2';
chart.data.datasets[0].data = test2;
chart.data.datasets[0].borderColor = '#F1FC00';
} else {
chart.data.datasets[0].label = 'My test1';
chart.data.datasets[0].data = test1;
chart.data.datasets[0].borderColor = 'rgb(255, 99, 132)';
}
chart.update();
}
...
