In our Fortigate 100D we enabled IMPA and POP3 profiles, but need to make sure the antivirus is working as expected, for that how one can run an attack test ?

AFAIK there is no check for 'locky' in AV. The signature is included in Application Control, 'Botnet' category.

 

And no, I don't know of any reliable source / web site where you could catch a locky trojan -

Ede Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!

To just test the AV profile setup for general functionality, the standard EICAR anti-virus test files could be used: http://www.eicar.org/85-0-Download.html - they should be detected/blocked by every AV software, so you might need to temporarily disable your local AV client, when trying to send an email containing it.
