From a process/QA perspective I doubt this can ever be properly tested.

Sure you can set up a UX to show that the auth server is somehow down and discourage users from trying to login/reset passwords, but when shit hits the fan, you actually never know the precise error that gets thrown to the client because it could be any layer between the backend and the client that failed...
