Then key-on, engine-off. The IAC will continuously be commanded to extend (closing the port). Placing your hand on the IAC you should be able to feel it clicking.
Don't do this with the IAC removed from the TB. Else the pintle will exit the IAC.

At key-off, short ALDL connector pins A&B together.
Then key-on, engine-off. The IAC will continuously be commanded to extend (closing the port). Placing your hand on the IAC you should be able to feel it clicking.
Don't do this with the IAC removed from the TB. Else the pintle will exit the IAC.

Connect a dual channel scope to pins C3 (B Low), C4(B High), C5 (A High), and C6(A Low) and monitor the ECM output. At KOEO you should see some pulses for a few seconds, and one signal will lead the other in phase by about 180º.

Is it a signal a noid light would come on, such as when you are checking injectors?

Unplug the IAC, key-on, engine-off. Probe each pin with the other probe to ground. Should get a voltage reading on each pin. If it stays at 0, or stays at 12, then it isn't pulsing.
A noid light should show the same thing is a sense. If it is pulsing the light won't be as bright as if connected directly to 12 volts.
