How do you test your body fat?

I have a scale that supposedly measures it but frankly, I do not think it is accurate. I don't belong to a gym. I workout at home doing weights and cardio. I'm losing weight and definitely gaining muscle as I can tell just by the way I look and feel. I would really like to test my body fat % at home and I'm looking for a reliable way to do so. What do you all use?

TIA

    You could do a skinfold test. Doctors usually do that. Or you could do an underwater weighing test.
