The easiest method is to collect it in an upturned test tube, and place a lighted splint into it. If it goes out, pops, etc. it's not O2. If it burns much brighter, it is.

How will you test the envolved gases in electrolysis in water?

You can test the evolved gases in electrolysis of water by collecting the gases separately in test tubes placed over the anode and cathode. The gas collected at the anode is likely oxygen, while the gas collected at the cathode is likely hydrogen. You can confirm their identities by performing simple tests such as the re-ignition test for oxygen and the "pop" test for hydrogen.
