I think that you're misusing Chebyshev (do you really only want to give "3"
as a coefficient..which is just the constant function 3), and you have to
evaluate it in order to give matplotlib some x and y data to plot.
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
x = np.linspace(-1.0,1.0)
test = np.polynomial.Chebyshev((1,2,3))
y = test(x)
plt.plot(x,y)
plt.show()
