How to have linux test pin serial port effectively?

 

You can use statserial which is used to display serial port status lines.

Statserial [options] <device_name>

The output of this is a table of signals on a 9-pin or 25-pin serial port indicating status of the handshake lines.

The main limitation with this command is that it only works with devices that support TIOCMGET ioctl.
