My facility manager created a very nice shower test rig here:
http://chemistry.ucdavis.edu/safety/files/chemistry-safety-vol2-issue1.pdf
The shower curtain-like set-up on a pole was purchased commercially Ð the bottom is weighted to keep it inside the bucket.
We don't test to Ò30 gallons/minuteÓ Ð that's the plumbing shop's responsibility in their annual inspection.

that proceeds smoothly under normal conditions,
can proceed violently in the presence of an idiot."

They do make safety shower testing kits, on wheels even. See
