I am writing a script in web3js to interact with a smart contract that is on the mainnet. This is not a smart contract I control.

I want to test / develop using a testnet. So how can I check my script runs correctly without directly interacting with it on mainnet? Or do I have to rely on that smart contract being deployed on one of the testnets?

You will have to rely on it being deployed on the testnet you're using. You can deploy the contract yourself if you want to be sure it's there.
