They can test with https://www.eventzero.com/Tools/FederationTester/

We've used the eventzero tool and a couple of times it's returned success for both sides, but we still weren't able to connect.

They seem to have their configuration correct and they've been able to federate with other clients in the past, but they don't have a checklist of steps to take so they always seem to forget a step and we have to troubleshoot.
