You will need a megger (Voltage depends on the transformer), a TTR, a winding resistance test test, a power factor test set, a microohmeter and oil sampling equipment(if oil filled). You will probally spend close to $100,000 on the equipment (new).
 
Zogzog is right on with his equipment suggestions. You mentioned that you are looking for specific brands. We use the following:

Megger: AVO (as he said voltage depends on transformer)

TTR: Biddle

Winding Resistance: AVO

Power Factor: Doble M4000

Microohmeter: Biddle



 
A quick point to remember:

Make sure the test instruments u get use test methods and specs. etc per your relevent country standard. Also get the instruments with a cal. sticker.

Google your test requirement. There are expensive test sets and economical ones too. Like AEMC, Vanguard. Visit their websites
