Welcome to the forum.
No worries at all. There is absolutely no risk from this sort of contact. Nobody in the world ever caught HIV from shaking hands with an infected person, regardless of cuts or nicks on the hands of either person. You do not need testing and can safely continue unprotected sex with your wife.
