wp enqueue not showing

This is all you need in your function to load jquery.

<?php
function load_jquery(){
    wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_jquery');
?>

Also, make sure your header.php file has this line <?php wp_head(); ?>

I do see a include of jquery from wp-includes. after my wp_head i included the file to my script i.e <script type=”text/javascript” src=”scripts/script.js”></script> which has code

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  alert('test');
});

still nothing pops up

Does the jQuery library get loaded now?

yes it says

Ok, now step 2.
Register your script, then enqueue it.

Look at this example. (switch scriptaculous with jquery)
Also, read this, https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/wp_register_script ,so you know what you’re doing.
