I don't know of an out-of-the-box solution (i.e., something you can
just download and run) but you can completely automate SP testing with
an IdP that has a test account set up for basic authentication. A
script can log into the IdP and push a SAML assertion to the SP.
That's what we did to find SPs that didn't support assertions signed
using a SHA-2 digest algorithm. This wiki page (and its child pages)
might be useful to you: https://spaces.internet2.edu/x/JAJkAg

Hope this helps,
