genetic ancestry tests

How can I track my Austrian Hapsburg royal ancestry?
I have a Family Tree that states that my great-great-great grandfather was the “sohn of Graf (count) von Salm”. However, my family insists that this man was, in fact, the son of the brother of Kaiser Franz Josef I (who was not the Count von Salm), and a Czech chambermaid. The man’s son, in fact, was the personal assistant to the Prince Auersperg (family name of the Hapsburgs.) I guess they think that whoever composed my family tree was lying for the purposes of protecting Franz Josef’s brother (I have no idea which or what his name is.)
Is there some sort of Hapsburg genetic test, and would it matter if I was the great-great-great-grandchild of a Hapsburg? I am American, and generally not your typical Austrian royal.
Would there be any money in this relationship? How about if I am related to the Graf von Salm?
Therre would be no money in it for you. There might be a peck of trouble, though. Current Austrian law requires the surrender to all such claims if you want to enter the country. The use of noble titles and prepositions like “von” is forbidden by the Austrian constitution.The highly respected European parliamentarian Dr. Otto v. Habsburg, son of the last King-Emperor, Karl, lives in Bavaria.
