Sorry, forgot to mention that it may spark a bit
All this does is bypass all the other wiring including the ignition swith to prve straight away if they: work/don't work/some other problem.
When my car has a flat battery even the voltage drop thru the loom will stop it turning over.

I usually get a beefy insulated screwdriver and short across the terminals on the back of the solenoid. You can then find out if both the solenoid and the starter are working by turning them on individually. Its a bit rough but it works. If you're jumping you just use the pos end of the jumper cables. It may also tell you, if it works fine and turns the engine over, that there are problems elsewhere.
