Should we get tested for COVID-19?

A friend of my wife works with a lady whose husband tested positive for COVID-19. My friend and others were playing cards last night and we all had masks on. Should we all get tested?

Yes you should all get tested at least 5 to 7 days after exposure and stay quarantined until then
Testing not needed on the example stated.
