I want my students to submit their homework to Canvas. I think they can upload their files. 

But I, as an instructor do not know how to access each student's files. Where does it go?

I tried to click on a student's name, but I could not find it. I have created a test student and uploaded some files. But I could not access test student's files either when I get back to my page.

Hello  @ksna  Welcome to the Canvas Community!

For students to submit their homework in Canvas, you'll have to create an assignment and set it up to receive file uploads. Once you do that, they will be able to submit their files, and you'll be able to see it by revisiting the assignment page and selecting SpeedGrader.

How do I create an online assignment? Choose File Uploads for the Online Entry Options

You can try out the Assignment as Test Student and then see it as the Instructor in SpeedGrader if you want to confirm that it all works. https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-13122-415261153 

I hope these guides help,
