Your test case does not prove anything.
* Only 1 row
* Selecting the entire table
* etc.
Present a more realistic test so we can discuss it further.
Keep in mind that if you fetch only a small number of rows, the index may be used. If you fetch most of the table, it is likely to be faster to ignore the index and scan the entire table, even if it adds a "filesort".
