Hey Alan,
Thanks for the question! You can use the crawl test if you are between scheduled crawls, but if you run test within a few days of a scheduled crawl you may end up with cached information. You shouldn't run the crawl test on a regular basis, but its fine to do every once and a while.

I love the screaming frog tool that Matt recommended but we do have a crawl tester here on moz.com
http://pro.moz.com/tools/crawl-test
You can perform the crawl up to twice per day. It will tell you that you'll get results within 24 hours but I've never had it take more then 4 hours for a regular sized site.
Hope this helps.
Darin.

What kind of info are you looking for the crawl to provide? Moz will do a quick crawl and then a detailed crawl within a week. However, there are other things you can use.
EDIT: You can use the Moz tool - http://pro.moz.com/tools/crawl-testOne of the best on the market is Screaming Frog Spider. You can do so many things with it. There is a great post over at SEER Interactive on things to do with it:

Error in Moz duplicate content reports
Hi - I've run the Moz campaign on a client's site. Moz is saying that there are duplicate content errors, and when I look at the errors it is showing that they are all to do with the non-www URLs having being duplicated in the www form of the URLs. However this is not the case - all the non-www URLs are all 301 redirected to the www URLs. Is this an error in the Moz tool? Has anybody experienced something similar?

Ranking wrong 3 weeks in a row
For 3 weeks in a row my rankings have been showing between 15 and 26 for Bing Australia, when bing itself shows it is between 3 and 5

I understand it can get the rankings on a day when it may have moved, but 3 weeks in a row is a bit strange.
I checked the Bing US and i rank 5. Is there a problem? Keyword

Scheduling crawls between certain time periods
Hi, today SEOMoz crawled our site and it interfered with an email campaign that we sent out and pretty much brought our site to a crawl (seoMoz even reported numerous 4XX errors). Is there a way to tell the crawler to only allow indexing between certain time periods?
