The test for glucose in a urine sample is specifically referred to as a urine glucose test. A1c and FBG are blood tests used to monitor diabetes mellitus, but they do not involve testing urine. OGTT (oral glucose tolerance test) is another type of blood test used to diagnose diabetes, but it also does not involve testing urine for glucose.
