Default water pump

how can you tell if your water pump is fooked ? changed the themostat + electric fan sensor but the engine is still getting WARM !! hope its not the head gasket ! no oil in header tank or mayo on the oil filler cap, is there a quick / easy way to check a water pump is dying ?
car is a fiesta turbo
cheers
