A test method for a screwer performs the steps of connecting the screwer to a rotatable attachment element, screwing down the screwer, measuring the attachment element speed, power-supplying an electric motor to bring it to a speed close to the measured speed, connecting the shaft of the electric motor to the attachment element, and causing the motor to follow a braking ramp while the torque transmitted from the screwer to the driving shaft is measured. A device in accordance with this method includes a rotatable attachment element to which the screwer to be tested is applied, and an electric motor connected to the attachment element through a releasable coupling connecting the motor to the attachment element on achievement of a motor speed close to that of the attachment element. The motor is controlled for following a braking ramp based on a predetermined law, while a transducer measures the transmitted torque between the attachment element and braking element.
