Any way to control wether ext. 32k XTAL works properly?

Hello all,

Our product based on nRF51 is on preproduction stage. We use both 16MHz and 32kHz external crystals. The question is: Is there any way to check programatically if 32kHz crystal soldered/soldered properly/works fine?

We noticed that on SD110 v8.0.0 device works even without external 32k crystal with software defined as

if (NRF_SUCCESS !=(err_code=sd_softdevice_enable((uint32_t)NRF_CLOCK_LFCLKSRC_XTAL_75_PPM, softdevice_assert_callback)))...

However, in that case the current consumption increased significantly. And it could cause problems in post production testing.
