is there a way to test if a password is valid or not?

sudo<command>

To be able answer that I need to understand what problem you are trying
to solve and a little more context.
Why do you need to do this ?
Is it a specific users password ?
Or do you want to determine if a user can authenticate to the system at
this time ?
Is this from C code or shell script ?
I'd recommend you start by looking at the documentation for PAM:
docs.sun.com Home >
Oracle Solaris 11 Express Software Developer Collection >
Developer's Guide to Oracle Solaris Security >
3. Writing PAM Applications and Services
