Amp for WordPress makes not only your website load fast but also improve your ranking in Google. There are many plugins available to add Accelerated Mobile pages to WordPress but accidentally, I found an Amp plugin for WordPress that can add Amp/Accelerated mobile pages WordPress instantly.  The name of that plugin is AMP Toolbox – Accelerated Mobile Pages WordPress.
I have also written an article in which I had described, how to use AMP plugin by Automattic along Glue for Yoast SEO and AMP plugin but that’s not really worked so well. I have used  Yoast Amp WordPress plugin called Glue with AMP plugin on my website but I got many errors in my Google Analytics i.e. AMP pages not found. So I have removed both the plugins and start searching for some good AMP Plugin and finally, I got  the AMP Toolbox – Accelerated Mobile Pages Wordpress. Many peoples are using pagefrog for setting up an AMP and also on Yoast.com I have found a post in which they are recommended not to use pagefrog due to its complexity.
Here is my Previous article on AMP: Accelerated mobile pagesWordPresss

How to test if AMP is working or not?
After following above steps, you will see AMP indexed pages in the Google search console of your website under Accelerated Mobile pages. Just give Google  4-5 days to reflect the AMP indexed pages in the search console. To index, your AMP pages will use the amp tag and then it updates the search console.
How can I view the AMP version of my site
To view the AMP version, open the browser and open any post of your website and at the end of the link in the browser write /?amp.
For example, this post link is : http://www.how2shout.com/wordpress-tutorial/add-accelerated-mobile-pages-wordpress-plugins.html   and for getting its amp version I will write/?amp at the end of the URL i.e. http://www.how2shout.com/wordpress-tutorial/add-accelerated-mobile-pages-wordpress-plugins.html/?amp
Don’t worry about duplication of the content because that has been taken care of the canonical tag as suggested by Google.
