Mark from Deep Sky Optics can do this, but depending on what type of report/test you want. If you want to know how good (or bad) your mirror is, the types of aberrations (turned edge, spherical aberation, astigmatism, polish, etc, then DSO can do this, but as far as I know, will not give you an interferometric report, even though he has the expertise. Best to discuss directly with Mark from DSO. Speaking from my own experience, he definitely knows what he is doing and is one of the best around, and has not only tested one of my mirrors, but refigured it to perfection.
Of course, for this kind of support, there will be a fee.

Clear skies,
Nick
