Headgaskets or Thermostat!?!?

I am losing coolant but have also seen some on the ground and noticed my thermostat is slightly leaking - easy fix. But until yesterday the level never really changed. I want to pressure test to check the head gaskets. Is this the best way to make sure they're ok? Can I just put a line and pressure guage to the T where my coolant filter goes to check it?
