alternator bad? 850

Got the new battery in and did a voltage test. Car off 12.6 volts. car running at idle 14 volts at higher rpm 14 volts. At idle with all accessories on 13.9 volts and high rpm 13.9 volts. SHould I be testing current also? If so can someone explain how to test it. I have a nice clamp on fluke to use.
