The flame test as a chemical test is rarely used as a diagnostic anymore. It has been replaced with ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) analysis that is basically a computerized flame test on steroids. ICP analysis allows researchers to quickly determine the elemental composition of almost any sample. One fun application of the flame test is fireworks. Fireworks are given their colors by the same chemicals that color flames in the flame test.
