My default move is to just add sealant, because who's got time for testing?
Shaking might hint at sealant levels but usually not unless they're big tyres with a lot of sealant. If I really wanted to know I'd pull the tyre off and eyeball it, but I'm more likely to pull the valve out and stick something in to act like a dipstick to check fluid level in the tyre.
