There are many many many things about an electric motor to test. Which one do you want to test or do you even know? Do you want a single test to say "Yes this motor is good!"?

step 1: switch off the motors breaker, lock it out with your lock, tag.

step 2: check with a volt meter that all (phase to phase) and (phase to ground) readings are 0 volts.

step 3: depends on the test equipment you are going to use.

WARNING: Working with mains voltages can be lethal.
