How old is the engine? Has it always burned oil or did it start slowly and get worse? Or did it happen all of a sudden? A leakdown or compression test will not address or identify worn or broken/failed second or oil rings. Bad guides or seals will defintely cause oil use - you are using a LOT if it goes through a quart that fast....
