How do we know which one is a black hole solution(metric) or a wormhole solution(metric)? what is its feature?

I'm not quite sure what the OP wants. Just in case, I should point out that you can't actually traverse the Schwarzschild wormhole, the singularity gets in the way. There are such things as traversable wormholes, but they generally require exotic matter.
