Momentarily disconnect the return line going to the reservoir. If it pump fluid back, then the pump is probably good and need to look at the steering box. If it does not come back, then probably the pump is bad.

Many times you just look down direct into the reservoir and see if the return fluid is coming back in by the agitation of the fluid moving around a bit. I would still disconnect the return line regardless though and check.
