I remember reading an instruction placard for leak testing an old
microwave years ago. All you needed to do was pass a small 5"-6"
florescent tube near the door parting surfaces. The tube would
supposedly glow if there was leakage. I never tried it.

An interesting idea for testing your microwave cooker was passed to
my wife.
If you want to test your Microwave oven for leakage, put your mobile
phone inside, and call it. If it rings, the microwaves got in, so they
could get out, therefore it's leaking.
There seem to be an unusually high number of 'failures'. I am wondering
if the technique is sound? There are indirect ventilation slots in every
microwave.
