I know you can Ohm test them, but I just pull them out and run a power wire to the post and ground the body. The tip should get too hot to touch within a few seconds. I wouldn't put power to them for any longer than that.

The upgraded glow plug is a NGK Y-103V. These require 12 volts, so to use these you will need to do away with the glow plug light and run them thru a solenoid. I'm sure if you search you will find all the info you need on it.
