Testing the DIC or IDM

I read on the saab site the following method to test a direct ignition cassette and saw it posted on here once, but has anyone here ever tried it and lived to tell about it? I'll pass on the USE EXTREME CAUTION warning that was on the saab site first so nobody shocks/kills themselves following these instructions:
"Testing the DI Cassette
Turn the Cassette over & put the plugs in the holes, ground each plug to the negative battery terminal and turn the engine over watching the spark. If there is a problem with the cassette, one of the plugs will have no spark or a very weak spark. Also, when you turn the ignition key off there should be a shower of sparks that runs the length of the plugs several times. There have been occasions when the DI cassettes would test ok when turned upside down but would fail when turned back over to install into the valve cover! Oil leakage from the individual coils of the cassettes have also been a problem. Oil leaks can be identified by noting that there is oil in the spark plug hole! "
