Fortunately, great minds have been at work on this problem for decades, and one research group has proposed an initial method for testing common sense that should work as a stepping stone to more sophisticated ones.
A cell growth assay was used as an initial method of assessing function.
A conceptual model based on a systematic review of studies in other industries was used as an initial method for coding the data.
