How did Snape know Harry could resist Imperius?"

It seems to me Barty Crouch wouldn't comment on the lesson with either Snape
or DD (I strongly suspect he wasn't following the school program). But he
would, however, comment with Voldy, after the events on the graveyard.
Before would be too risky and Voldy wouldn't have tried it if he had known -
the idea was to prove how hopeless Harry Potter was before him.

At the end of GoF, Snape goes back to Voldy and the DE's. He does 5 months
of spying (July to December) before he starts occlumency with Harry. I
suppose the other DE's would fill him in on both the DA lessons and the
events in the graveyard.
