We can test a Capacitor through a Multimeter. Before testing a capacitor it must be discharged to avoid risk of shock.We can check the charging and discharging of capacitor by selecting the multimeter to continuity mode also there are some advanced mutimeters which can test the capacitance of capacitors.
