How do you test a battery?

[Waza]

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there is a way of testing your laptop battery life to see if it's faulty. The problem is it only last's about an hour when not on mains.

Could anyone tell me if there is a way to test it.

How long should you get on a fully charged battery.

Thanks.

its a Sony viao vgn-Fe33 series....
