Any way to test a MAP Sensor?

I've found information about testing the resistance values on the IAT sensor to determine if it is functioning correctly, but I haven't found any info on testing the MAP sensor. Does it operate the same way as the IAT sensor (just measuring pressure instead)? If so, how do you test it?

Thanks,
CTD12V
