because it is so cheap and i dont have enough bucks 2 buy a new 1

by testing I mean to check if there is a problem with any part of it or not/

is there a special software to test it.

Honestly no, there is not any software. The only way to really test the system is to plug in your components, see if it works, and maybe run a stress test. Also try and see if you can check out the system before you buy the board.
