How to test whether AWS elastic load balancer is working properly or not? Is there any test or thing with which we can verify it?

To check the web load balancer, you can simply create two different web pages with the same filename on two servers.
Server 1: index.html
<html><body>This is server 1</body></html>
Server 2: index.html
<html><body>This is server 2</body></html>
Then you browse the webpage with the public IP address that load balancer provided. When you see "This is server 1", you are connecting to server 1, vice versa.
Under the load balancer configuration page, you can see how many instances are running.
