How to test the ID-12 RFID tag reader crc and checksum code on arduino board without the ID-12 reader?
I'm using the serial monitor and in the space for send I just put an ascii or hex value and then press enter but no output display. If my method is wrong please let me know.
Sorry

This is the code I copy from Learning Tab,Playground

// RFID reader ID-12 for Arduino 
// Based on code by BARRAGAN <http://people.interaction-ivrea.it/h.barragan> 
// and code from HC Gilje - http://hcgilje.wordpress.com/resources/rfid_id12_tagreader/
// Modified for Arduino by djmatic
// Modified for ID-12 and checksum by Martijn The - http://www.martijnthe.nl/
//
// Use the drawings from HC Gilje to wire up the ID-12.
// Remark: disconnect the rx serial wire to the ID-12 when uploading the sketch


void setup() {
 Serial.begin(9600);                                 // connect to the serial port
}

void loop () {
 byte i = 0;
 byte val = 0;
 byte code[6];
 byte checksum = 0;
 byte bytesread = 0;
 byte tempbyte = 0;

 if(Serial.available() > 0) {
   if((val = Serial.read()) == 2) {                  // check for header 
     bytesread = 0; 
     while (bytesread < 12) {                        // read 10 digit code + 2 digit checksum
       if( Serial.available() > 0) { 
         val = Serial.read();
         if((val == 0x0D)||(val == 0x0A)||(val == 0x03)||(val == 0x02)) { // if header or stop bytes before the 10 digit reading 
           break;                                    // stop reading
         }

         // Do Ascii/Hex conversion:
         if ((val >= '0') && (val <= '9')) {
           val = val - '0';
         } else if ((val >= 'A') && (val <= 'F')) {
           val = 10 + val - 'A';
         }

         // Every two hex-digits, add byte to code:
         if (bytesread & 1 == 1) {
           // make some space for this hex-digit by
           // shifting the previous hex-digit with 4 bits to the left:
           code[bytesread >> 1] = (val | (tempbyte << 4));

           if (bytesread >> 1 != 5) {                // If we're at the checksum byte,
             checksum ^= code[bytesread >> 1];       // Calculate the checksum... (XOR)
           };
         } else {
           tempbyte = val;                           // Store the first hex digit first...
         };

         bytesread++;                                // ready to read next digit
       } 
     } 

     // Output to Serial:

     if (bytesread == 12) {                          // if 12 digit read is complete
       Serial.print("5-byte code: ");
       for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
         if (code[i] < 16) Serial.print("0");
         Serial.print(code[i], HEX);
         Serial.print(" ");
       }
       Serial.println();

       Serial.print("Checksum: ");
       Serial.print(code[5], HEX);
       Serial.println(code[5] == checksum ? " -- passed." : " -- error.");
       Serial.println();
     }

     bytesread = 0;
   }
 }
}

Please modify your post and use the code button </> so your code looks like this and is easy to copy to a text editor. See How to use the Forum

That way there won't be unwanted italics.
