GFCI tester tell me if my non gfci outlet is downstream from a gfci?

I have a couple of bathrooms that have standard (non-GFCI) outlets. I always assumed that they were downstream from one of the 5-6 GFCIs that we do have in the house.

A home inspector (we are selling) tells me that those outlets are not GFCI protected. That really surprises me because when we built in 2009 we had a lot of confidence in our electrician.

I have gone around turning off the GFCIs I can find in an attempt to cut power to those standard outlets but I can not find one that is protecting those standard receptacles.

Is there a GFCI tester that I can buy that will tell me (or trip) an upstream GFCI outlet?
