    No, it is not wrong to test someone elses software before you buy
UNLESS:
 
1. The software is installed on a machine semi-permanently (i.e. hard disk)
   and you use the software on another computer.
 
2. You make a copy rather than taking the back-up copies made by your friend.
 
   The software license isn't for the person who bought the software, it
   just says that it will not be used on more than one machine at one time.
