With the engine off you can pull the brake booster vacuum line and if you don't hear vacuum escaping the booster is probably bad, here is a guide and video to help you change out the brake master cylinder with instructions below. I assume the brake master is full of fluid?
I removed the tube from the booster and it didn't have any vacuum escaping.
