Tech/maintenance testing saxophone for leaks

[saxn00b445]

is there a definitive test you can do to tell if your saxophone has leaking pads?

i do not have a leak light/wand to put down the neck of the saxophone

Cigarette paper or leader from cassette tapes, glued to sticks, can be used.
I sacrificed my chopsticks, and had to learn to used a fork. 😜
Tape between pad and rim, close gently at first and feel for tension as you pull it out.
Best to watch a video.
Saw something will a rubber glove on the bell, but that is not great to isolate the leaks
