GSS-API Kerberos authentication is embedded within application specific protocols. In this case, you need to write a test application which implements the SQL query protocol as implemented by the ODBC drivers.
the Java-ODBC driver interface provides very poor performance and is usually regarded as something which should not be used unless you absolutely have to. I suggest you find a native JDBC driver which supports the GSS-API negotiations. That will provide you better control over what is happening on the client.
