Can you install a GFCI receptacle on a circuit protected by a Arc fault breaker? Also, how do they test these arc fault circuits to see if they are performing correctly?

Yes, gfci protection can be used in conjunction with afci protection.

The best method for testing the afci device itself is to use the test button on the unit itself. There are afci testers on the market, however I have read that some do not perform well.
