I check to see if a battery is good or not by hooking up a battery charger with an amp reading. If the reading stays well above 3 amps and doesn't go down, then you probably have a shorted battery.

Check the voltage. It is suggested that the voltage be 20% more than the battery's voltage. For example, with a 12 volt battery, the voltage should be 14.4 volts. (20% of 12 volts is 2.4 which gives 14.4 when added to 12)
