I'm replacing my pair after 4 years of brutality worthy of a medieval dungeon.

Default shake them really hard - if they go, "wooowooo" they are broken. Or.....

You could apply a vacuum to the nipple and if they hold vacuum, you're fine.

A mighty vac works fine but you could also just suck on the nipple (no jokes please) - either way, if they hold you are fine.
