Use a multimeter on continuity test, or make your own.

Connect a torch type bulb to a battery and make sure it lights up. Then break the circuit and connect it through the bulb in the airbag unit. If you get torch bulb lit your airbag bulb is ok. If not then its blown.

Test it on the abs bulb too to make sure you get the correct result and not some sort of anomoly.
