I took my check ride in the actual aircraft when I got my type ride in the 727. Part of the maneuvers I was required to do, was to have the yaw dampers turned off, have the aircraft placed in a Dutch roll condition by the safety pilot in the right seat, then I was to recover from the Dutch Roll.
In the 727 you use opposite aileron of the direction of the roll and when the aircraft was stable, the yaw dampers were turned back on and we continued on with the rest of the check ride.
Failing the Dutch roll recovery was an instant fail for the check ride.
