Yes, you test that.  But perhaps that DNS server is used as a recursive 
name server for clients of the owner.  It could have the data in its cache 
and would answer your query with the cached data.  By checking that their 
authoritative name server received a query, that proves the server in 
question is open to recursion from the outside.
