While I have no test that I can volunteer, let alone a test that supports L4S.
I want to take the opportunity to share my tcpdump invocations that can show
ECN in action on the IP-level:
# ECN: IPv4
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip and (ip[1] & 0x3) != 0' # NOT Not-ECT
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip and (ip[1] & 0x3) == 0' # Not-ECT
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip and (ip[1] & 0x3) == 1' # ECT(1)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip and (ip[1] & 0x3) == 2' # ECT(0)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip and (ip[1] & 0x3) == 3' # CE
# ECN: IPv6
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 != 0' # NOT Not-ECT
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 0' # Not-ECT
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 1' # ECT(1)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 2' # ECT(0)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n 'ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 3' # CE
# ECN IPv4/6
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n '(ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 != 0)' or '(ip and
(ip[1] & 0x3) != 0)' # NOT Not-ECT
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n '(ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 1)' or '(ip and
(ip[1] & 0x3) == 1)' # ECT(1)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n '(ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 2)' or '(ip and
(ip[1] & 0x3) == 2)' # ECT(0)
tcpdump -i pppoe-wan -v -n '(ip6 and (ip6[0:2] & 0x30) >> 4 == 3)' or '(ip and
(ip[1] & 0x3) == 3)' # CE
Just replace "-i pppoe-wan" with your own network interface of interest, this
seems to work on both recent inux and older macos (12.6.7).
Before L4S roll-out the test for ECT(1) can be helpful to confirm that there is
no background ECT(1) usage that might (or might not) cause issues with L4S.

[SM] Not mine to offer, but I think speed.cloudflare.com also might be
interesting as it seems to follow the modern "let's not ignore latency under
load" paradigm as well as the translate the results into terms suitable for
casual users, while also reporting the hard numbers for those interested.
What seems not available right now is a public test that can
selectively exercise both L4S queues independently.
