Describe bad. Are you looking for a dead one, or just one that is under performing?

To check for a dead injector pull the valve covers but hook all the wiring back up. Start the truck and watch each injector where it spits oil from the discharge spout. A dead injector won't be spitting any oil or will barely be spitting any compared to the other 7.
