Find a deserted (or at least lightly travelled) road, and lock them up. You
should be able to (deliberately) lock all 4 wheels, and in general, the
fronts should lock with just slightly less pedal pressure than the rears.
You don't need to come to a full stop that way, just long enough to
establish it can be done.
Good test to do every few years, just to be sure. Obviously, if something
starts to go wrong (car feels like it's going to go sideways or whatever),
get back off the brakes ASAP and then stop gently (before calling for a
flatbed).
