Generally you can find what filesystems are mounted on what mount-point on your system by going through the /etc/mnttab file. The format for the file differs between systems, so go through the man page of your mnttab file to get the exact format. Once you get this list, you can do your tests (disk usage, touch, etc.)
One point to note is that you can mount a filesystem without making an entry in the /etc/mnttab file. But I dont think that those will be that common.
One question though, why cann't you use the df or similar command to find the mounted filesystems on your system?

quotaon
quotaon(1M) System Administration Commands quotaon(1M)
NAME
quotaon, quotaoff - turn ufs file system quotas on and off
SYNOPSIS
quotaon [-v] filesystem...
quotaon -a [-v]
quotaoff [-v] filesystem...
quotaoff -a [-v]
DESCRIPTION
quotaon turns on disk quotas for one or more ufs file systems.
Before a file system may have quotas enabled, a file named quotas, owned by root, must exist in the root directory of the file system. See
edquota(1M) for details on how to modify the contents of this file.
quotaoff turns off disk quotas for one or more ufs file systems.
The file systems specified must already be mounted.
These commands update the mntopts field of the appropriate entries in /etc/mnttab to indicate when quotas are on or off for each file sys-
tem. If quotas are on, the string quota will be added to mntopts; if quotas are off, the quota string is not present.
filesystem must be either the mount point of a file system, or the block device on which the file system resides.
OPTIONS
quotaon
-a This option is normally used at boot time to enable quotas. It applies only to those file systems in /etc/vfstab which have ``rq''
in the mntopts field, are currently mounted ``rw'', and have a quotas file in the root directory.
-v Display a message for each file system after quotas are turned on.
quotaoff
-a Force all file systems in /etc/mnttab to have their quotas disabled.
-v Display a message for each file system affected.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of quotaon and quotaoff when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2
**31 bytes).
FILES
/etc/mnttab mounted file systems
/etc/vfstab list of default parameters for each file system
