In my opinion, all the symptoms you mention are governed by the spring rates and not the shock condition.
Shocks mostly control the dynamics of the car - i.e. not how much the body rolls in a corner but rather how it does is - whether is goes in one smooth motion or whether is wobbles toward the new roll angle.
It is much better to judge the shock condition by how a car goes over bumps in a corner or how it react to a quick change in the steering wheel position - but it is also hard to do it without having a reference car with good shocks to compare. It is also not easy to tell front shocks from rear shocks and left from right.
