Login to your namecheap account, then under Host Management > All Host Records we need to add our DKIM and Domain record Verification Set under the sub-domain settings. The values take this form:

Host Name            IP Address/URL              Record Type     TTL
name1._domainkey     value1.dkim.amazonses.com.  CNAME (Alias)   1800
name2._domainkey     value2.dkim.amazonses.com.  CNAME (Alias)   1800
name3._domainkey     value3.dkim.amazonses.com.  CNAME (Alias)   1800
_amazonses           someDomainRecordSet         TXT Record      1800

Do take note of the following changes:

Instead of name1._domainkey.test.com we changed it to name1._domainkey . Yes, it's intentional. There is no need for the domain test.com at the end of the line.

Also we removed test.com from _amazonses.test.com as namecheap's dns will append it upon save.
