Inspect the film. That doesn't give you any measurements. It's also not the way shutter speed testing works. The statement was made the shutter was tested to be %100 accurate, which is different than "I shot a roll from f2 to f22 at 1/1000 and every exposure was perfect". It's also not that easy to accurately control shooting f2 to f22 using the same shutter speed.
