How would it not test the gears? If its actually fucked it wont do anything when you try to slip the clutch to the wheels. 3rd gear wouldnt be good on the clutch to go from a stop, but if the car moves you know the gear isnt fucked.Doing that does not really test the gears or sychros. You're just feeling the clutch engage. The gears are already meshed.
You need to drive it and shift it thru the gears test the trans.
