Yes, there is. I often test hydraulic solenoids as a heavy duty mechanic. There's a way.
Resistance check - usually 15 to 30 ohms
Shuttle check - apply voltage and release it. I take a screwdriver touching the solenoid body and put to my ear. If I can hear it click in and out, it's working.

But the 'professional' way to test it applying a voltage while hydraulic pressure is flowing in the circuit. You need a special transmission valve body dyno that only special rebuild shops have.
