you can use Dnsperf of Nominum INC. It's a nice and simple tool.

Infoblox has a nice test that you can run against your primary nameserver.
You run the test from their site so you can check to see if you cache is
viewable from external DNS queries and things like that. To run the is free
and it does not check the performance on the configuration.

Thanks guys; how about something to check for any possible errors that might
be generating?

Samad,
It depends on how you want to test. Are you looking to test DNS query
performance (if so, try dnsperf from Nominum), and if you just want to test the
box itself for malformed query handling / TCP/UDP stack performance try using
tcpreplay + PCAPs captured from the world.
