The correct choice for the sentence is "its."
So the complete sentence reads: "He picked up the microphone to test its volume."
"Its" is the possessive pronoun indicating that the volume belongs to the microphone. "It's" is a contraction for "it is" or "it has," and "it" is a pronoun; neither of those fits in this context.
